Castello Banfi
The Castello Banfi is a family-owned vineyard estate and winery located in Tuscany. Banfi is the maker of some of the region's best-known wines that are available in 50 countries around the world. With over 7,200 acres of vineyards and olive groves, Banfi produces over 10 million bottles of wine a year, as well as olive oil and balsamic vinergerette. The study abroad students got the experience of touring the breath taking estate where we learned how Banfi produces and stores their wines, followed by a wine tasting and then lunch at the restaurant. The pictures below show the estate, wine barrels, our personal wine tasting display, a delicious two course meal at the restaurant (my favorite meal so far in Italy), and a group picture of the study abroad students with our professors.

My Personal Favorite: Gervais & Vine
Gervais & Vine, located in the Congaree Vista in Columbia, SC, is my ultimate favorite place to dine. G&V is a Mediterranean Tapas and Wine bar offering various selections of fresh menu items and over 35 wines by the glass available everyday. Wine tastings are offered every Wednesday from 5-7, along with weekly live entertainment, outdoor seating, monthly "Wine Goddess" parties, and daily specials. The atmosphere is contemporary and relaxing, and the staff is the most friendly and welcoming group I've met. Talk about great Southern Hospitality service!! I love everything about this restaurant from the fabulous wine selections to the mouthwatering tapas items (my top two favorite items are the Petite Filet topped with Pimento cheese and the Crab stuffed Salmon shown in the picture above). YUM!!

Jazzy Brunch in NYC
I had the pleasure of dining at Garage Restaurant and Café, the classiest Sunday brunch restaurant located in Greenwich Village, NYC. Garage provides an amazing atmosphere along with live, soothing, jazz music setting the tone of a causal and fabulous end of the week celebration meal. From the floor to ceiling are brickwork walls, glowing atmosphere, and an exclusive two story fireplace accenting a spotlighted stage for premier jazz bands to perform, this restaurant is the ultimate treat. Oh, and did I mention they offer bottomless mimosas for only $6.95?
The food is delicious and impeccably plated including a various amount of pancakes, French toast, and waffle creations with bursting flavors of fruit jellies and fillings flowing out of the bread ridges as well as juicy, jumbo filled omelets with fresh, made-to-order famously hot breakfast meats.
To all my hospitality food lovers living so far up North, the bottom line is to have a fabulous Sunday brunch at Garage Restaurant and Cafe because of the soothing tone of jazz music, bottomless mimosas, and exquisite food items all inside an astonishing atmosphere.

Sometimes even adults need toys to play with- TOY Restaurant in Gansevoort Meatpacking
This Southern Gal took another bite out of the Big Apple!! After spending New Years Eve at the Gansevoort Park hotel, it seemed only fair to make an appearance at the Gansevoort Hotel in the Meatpacking District. TOY, the main floor restaurant, boasts an exquisitely detailed, two-story dining room and bar filled with brilliant decor and tasteful Asian-inspired entrees. Neon lights, black leather, a geometric sculpture hanging from the two-story dining room along with a digital screen displaying the TOY logo are just some of the features this restaurant has to offer (not to mention the enormous punch bowl for two priced at a mere $30).
