The old college ritual of throwing back as many Tequila shots as possible, with copious amounts of salt and lime, are gone, thankfully. Premium producers like Partida Tequila prefer that you savor their delicious creations one sip at a time. Sofia Partida joins us to take us through the process with all of her family’s Tequila styles on “Wining and Dining with Jim White”. It’s the program devoted to introducing you to the people who create the flavors you love. Listen to the “theatre of the mind” podcast version of our tasting here or at iTunes. Watch Sofia guide me (and you) through a tasting on VOKALnow.com, YouTube and Vimeo. Salud!And, remember. If anybody asks you what you’re making for dinner…tell ’em reservations! (You might start, or finish, the evening with a Riedel snifter of premium Partida Tequila!)

Now, she and her cohorts, Chef Anastacia Quiñones and bartender Leann Berry, collectively known as the “Trifecta” are doing the same for the Cedars Neighborhood with the re-opening of The Cedars Social. On today’s episode hear Monica’s reflections on some of the amazing chefs and restaurateurs she has worked with through the years, and get a great sense of how the Dallas-Fort Worth restaurant scene has evolved. “Wining and Dining with Jim White” is the podcast devoted to introducing you to the people who make the eats and drinks you love.

Iconic restaurateur Monica Greene joins us on this week’s episode of “Wining and Dining with Jim White” on VOKALnow.com. She was loving her days of semi-retirement in Aspen, when a “funny thing happened on the way up the mountain”. She had a drink with some old friends and bought the establishment in which they were drinking (don’t try this at home). Turns out to be a very cool move, because that establishment is The Cedars Social, and Monica and her “trifecta” partners, Chef Anastacia Quiñones, and mixologist Leann Berry, have just re-opened the fleetingly popular restaurant in Dallas’ Cedars Neighborhood. They’re serving up “Modern Mexican Cuisine” (don’t bother asking for nachos), and pairing it with a great Tequila/Mezcal and fine wine program. You’ll hear great stories from Monica about her many restaurant successes–Monica’s Aca y Alla and Ciudad to name but a few–a couple of disappointments along the way, and about her love for Dallas-Fort Worth’s urban neighborhoods (clue: she’s usually had a restaurant in one of them). Welcome to the podcast devoted to introducing you to the people who create the eats and drinks you love. Catch all of our episodes on VOKAL Media and on iTunes. And, remember…if anybody asks you what you’re making for dinner, tell ’em reservations!

It’s the podcast devoted to introducing you to the women and men who create the eats and drinks you love. Catch all of our episodes on Vokalnow.com and on iTunes. And, remember.
