Talula's in the News and a Survey from Wark

Alex Chadwick, host of National Public Radio’s daily news magazine Day to Day, stopped by Talula’s Table during a recent election trail stop in the greater Philadelphia area. Why he chose to plug an article in some Condé Nast rag called Portfolio and quote some guy named John Turturro rather than citing one of my wonderful reports on Talula’s is beyond me. Nonetheless, if you missed the show when it aired yesterday, it’s more than worth checking out in the NPR archives. The audio clip of his charming on-air piece is accompanied on-line by a story, some of Alex’s own photos and a recipe, courtesy of Chef Sikora, for Talula's Smoky Spoonbread with Sautéed Shrimp, Chanterelles and Creamed Greens.

Even if you’re not a regular reader of Tom Wark’s wine biz and PR-related blog Fermentation, I’m sure he’d be pleased to have you participate in a survey he’s running at the moment. The goal? To get a sense of how and why people seek out wine information on the Web. There are also a couple of questions about Internet wine shopping trends. The survey only takes a minute or two to complete, all data is confidential and the results just might prove interesting. Why not head on over and take the survey?
