The Banter

The Guys respond to public inquiry, discuss food trends and recommend a great local chocolate place.

The Conversation

The Restaurant Guys host international winemaker Paul Hobbs on the show to discuss his newest project and its challenges. He shares his humble upbringing, tragic setbacks and gives insight into why he’s so committed and passionate about his projects. Listen as you sip on some spectacular Paul Hobbs wine. 

The Inside Track

The Guys met Paul and tried his wines in 1993 and began an annual wine tasting and dinner at Stage Left Steak. Paul has graciously named wines and done small bottlings for each of Mark’s four children. 

Mark: It's the late 80s. You're the winemaker at Simi. You've been a winemaker on the Opus One project and you're really starting to make a name for yourself in California. So you decide to go to Argentina and start all over again.  

Paul: Maybe it's a little bit like Tiger Woods changing his swing.
