Disclaimer: I am officially braindead. I should know better, really. After 10 years working in the internet, I should know better, but in my unending zeal to highlight the abject stupidity of this administration I am now guilty of doing exactly what they have done the past 4 years.... shamelessly spread misinformation! This menu is a 'petite blague' (small joke) …. albeit a very good one and one that I was more than willing to believe. My deepest apologies. But enjoy the petite blague anyways, it’s damn creative. By the way, the Barra of Mendocino wines are wonderful, as are the Barra's. They are not "Pioneers" or "Rangers" nor were they aware of this 'petite blague'.
Ugh! I'm appalled. Talk about inappropriate product placement. Well, at least I didn't have to show up and eat it.

Ya know, according to Chez Pim, this is a joke!

Bless you, I fell for it too. I am glad to hear that the wineries were NOT fund-raisers. I was thinking that this menu presented a nice little list of boycott targets!
The actual menu is much more seemly, and I wouldn't mind eating a similar meal myself;
