Whining about wine

Last night we had Indian for dinner, and it was excellent. I'd forgotten how much I enjoy Indian food. Mmmm, garlic nan. There is only one Indian restaurant in Xiamen, Indaino Johns, and we have been trying to get over to it since we heard about it maybe two months ago.

We had been wanting to get there becasue we heard that he had a wine cellar that was stocked with some fine Argentinean malbecs, so when we went the idea of food was secondary to our desire to once again have some good wine. Yeah, so last night he was out of malbecs.....

Well, not out, he had one bottle left which we drank. We sat and talked with the owner for a while, about how he moved from India to China and why he ended up in Xiamen. It was a good night, and he told us that if we buy wine that they willl deliver it to our place if we buy more then six bottles. How's that for service? That is one thing that we love over here, they really do go out of their way to make sure that you get good service.

From there we went back to My Way, the little bar that we found months back, and we sat there playing the dice game with the owner and another Chinese man. We've gotten good enough that we can almost recite the numbers 1-8 in Chinese without even thinking about them....

一，二，三，四，五，六，七，八, ...
