Bordeaux, what kind of wine is that?” I asked the beautiful waitress at Chez Sonia along Nairobi's Peponi Road. I am the kind of boring drinker who when he discovers something, I do not want to discover something else.
It is limiting, of course, because it stands in the way of adventure and discovery. The journey ends before it starts. For instance, I discovered Pinot Grigio and now whenever I have to drink white wine, I ask a waitress or the alcohol delivery store, ‘what Pinot Grigio do you have?” I refuse to drink anything else.
