“Chinese Style” Dinner with Kenny G

by Farley

Jacky and Kenny GKenny G always has lunch at the same place when he works at Rosenblum Cellars. It’s called Dragon Village and it’s a little place on Lincoln Avenue that you might just pass by if you weren’t looking too hard. He often brings those of us in the tasting room samples of their food. The funny thing is, he doesn’t even pay for it because he trades leftover wine for food. The funnier thing is that he’s become their marketing director of sorts, coming up with ideas for promoting business and even his own special dish: Kenny G Style tofu, white chicken, green beans, black bean sauce, and garlic. The owner, Jacky, took a bunch of pictures of the KG with his signature dish, putting them under the glass table tops and resulting in the sale of over 20 orders that first day to advertise it.

Kenny G Style Chinese food Chinese food isn’t just for lunch anymore. Kenny G has taken to going there some evenings, as they love him over there. The atmosphere improves dramatically when he’s roaming the restaurant, talking to customers, and sharing Rosenblum wine. If you see him, ask for the Kathy’s Cuvee Viognier which goes great with the spicy cuisine.

I finally made it over there last week. What was supposed to be 10 minutes turned into two hours….and I had a lot of work to do that didn’t get done (including cleaning and writing posts for my two blogs). But I did get to meet Jacky and he said that until he gets his liquor license, customers are welcome to bring in bottles of wine, without being charged corkage. Just tell him Kenny G and Farley sent you. And remember that Rosenblum Cellars wine is especially welcome.

If you are just tuning in, read here for more adventures with Kenny G.
