Five wines. Five regions. One unforgettable journey. 🍷🌎

We loved exploring the stories, flavors, and traditions behind each bottle with Svetlana Rostova during our Global Wine Journey tasting.

Flour-covered counters, homemade dough, garlic butter breadsticks fresh from the oven, and personal pizzas built from scratch. 🍕

In our beginner pizza-making class with Karen Lindsey Littlefield, we learned the foundations of homemade pizza night, including working with yeast, kneading dough, shaping crusts, making sauce, and baking the perfect pizza.

A few of our favorite pizza night tools: the America’s Test Kitchen-winning Mercer Culinary Millennia Pizza Cutter and the Perfect Peel Bakers Board 14” Cherry Pizza Peel with Athens Cooks logo. Both are available in-store and online at athenscooks.com.

Passport not required for this wine tasting. 🍷✈️

We’re sipping our way through France, Spain, Slovenia, Croatia, California, and beyond in our newest class, Summer Sipping: A Global Wine Journey with resident wine expert Svetlana Rostova.

Think crisp whites, easy summer reds, coastal wines, great stories, cheese + charcuterie pairings, and the kind of bottles you’ll want to bring to every patio dinner this summer.

Swipe to meet Svetlana and hear a little about the experience she’s bringing to the table. 🍇

Your Memorial Day table just called. It wants red gingham napkins, better grill tools, and weiner dog corn holders. 🌭🌽🇺🇸

We pulled together a few of our favorite hosting essentials for the long weekend, including MagicLinen Linen Napkins in Red Gingham, bambu® Disposable Bamboo Fancy Plates in both 11-inch and 7-inch sizes, the Outset Dachshund Corn Holders, the Outset Round Grill Press in Cast Iron, and the Great Scrape Woody Nub grill scraper, handcrafted in America and designed to custom-fit your grill grates over time.

Because burgers and corn on the cob deserve the right accessories. 🍔

Two bottles worth knowing. 🍷

We’ve been reaching for these Weninger reds lately—and Courtney, owner of Athens Cooks, just called the 2018 ‘Steiner’ her new favorite. Both are Blaufränkisch, but show it differently. The ‘Kirchholz,’ from old vines on stony, gravel-rich soil, brings more depth and structure. The ‘Steiner,’ grown in Sopron, is a bit more lifted—bright acidity with notes of dark berries and a subtle, spicy finish.

Featuring:
Weninger | 2017 ‘Kirchholz’ Burgenland Blaufränkisch
Weninger | 2018 ‘Steiner’ Sopron Kékfrankos (Courtney’s current favorite)
L’Atelier du Vin | Wine Opener – GEOMETRY (sleek, well-balanced, and made to keep on the counter)

Available in-store and online at athenscooks.com (link in bio).

Meet the newest addition to The Thrasher-Nelson household: Prince Moonpie! He was abandoned, rescued off Prince Ave in front of our store with several fractures and a dislocated femur. We have rehabilitated him back to a health weight, and he’s a much happier little boy! 🥲

Now, the question is, are you Team Moonpie or team Chef & Lady?
