Chef Marcel at your service!Food, Wine, and Linux may seem like a strange combination, but combining three passions can be a wonderful thing. I'm Marcel Gagné. Those of you who read Cooking with Linux, the multi-award-winning column that appeared monthly in Linux Journal magazine for 10 years, likely agree. With the help of my faithful waiter, François, Restaurant Chez Marcel serves up the finest in Linux and open source software paired with exceptional wines.

In that same spirit, this site features great Linux and Open Source software, ongoing wine tasting reports, recipes, and the occasional restaurant review. If you came here looking to read past Cooking with Linux columns, you'll find newer releases on the front page, a comprehensive list here and under the "CWL, The Column" menu link to the left. A votre santé! Bon appétit!

Passages:

A purge of stuff at home uncovers some history. December 2008 is the month that I gave up my disks and manuals of DOS Bibliographic software. It was great software at the time, and very expensive as well. Good bibliographic software packages were expensive but I held on to them because the DOS based and early Windows programs were better than what followed in Win95/98 versions.

Pelee Island Winery 2007 Cabernet Franc

 

2007 Cabernet Franc is a red wine from the Pelee Island Winery. It has a mix of currant and blueberry. A very nice red, I recommend it.

There is sufficient tannin content in this wine to make it a good, healthy choice for those who have to avoid red wine.
