          I normally as the moderator wait until more people answer, but since you asked so kindly


          Malaysian Curry chicken Laksa (soup)

          Treleven 2005 Dry Riesling ... the lemon notes in the wine and it's crispness blends extremely well with the chicken and curry tastes

          Future sound of London's "Antique toy" from the Dead Cities Album

              Nope, Treleven Vinyards, New York state in the finger lakes region... there are wine tastings around the casinos on the canada side of Niagra falls sometimes and when there are I go... and then hop around Toronto... It makes for a nice weekend getaway from Jersey when the summer down there gets too hot... because around Lake Ontario in August it's quite pleasing... especially walking around at the bottom of the falls where the mist is... natural air conditioning.. feels so good on a hot day.

              As far as I can tell they don't actually have a winery with tastings at the location of their vinyards, probably because it's a series of small private farms growing the gapes rather than one consolidated vinyard.

              Reislings from Upstate New York are actually on par with many of the German ones, the grapes are usually Johannesburg Reisling varieties with the strain... grows really well up there.
