Chocolate and Champagne Pairings To Pump Up Your Party
After a big holiday meal, what's better than some chocolate and champagne? Chocolatier Jacques Torres and Sommelier Victoria James share a few of their favorite pairings inspired by the holiday season.
Torres and James walk through three different pairings featuring Jacques Torres Chocolates and Taittinger Champagne. Torres's truffles feature different kinds of champagne including rosé, which James has paired with a similar bottle.
James, who is also the author of "Drink Pink," shares why rosé is such an interesting type of wine. People believe it's new because it's trendy. What they don't realize, however, is that rosé is the oldest kind of wine in existence.
With winter officially underway, a cup of tea is a perfect way to see off that cold. Fiona Hynes, corporate director of food and beverage at Arlo Hotels, joined Cheddar News to discuss the concept of high tea and the proper way to enjoy it. Executive Chef Michael King also demonstrated some treats to enjoy with tea.
Tom Smothers, half of the Smothers Brothers and the co-host of one of the most socially conscious and groundbreaking television shows in the history of the medium, has died at 86.
