...took a connoisseur’s approach to the event, sampling with light bites before clearing their palettes and continuing to the next dish. Others took a more real-life tack and dug right in, munching on White Bean Stew, Moroccan Stuffed Peppers, Chicken Verde and the crowd favorite, Mussel and Carrot Soup. We opted for the second method...

...wine region of Martinborough, with the Toast Martinborough drinkathon. Your chances of attending are slim, if last year is anything to go by - the 10,500 tickets for the 2002 event sold out in less than an hour. Console yourself with the Great Fitzroy Mussel Fest (a vast mussel bake on Great Barrier Island on Jan. 10, 2004), or Wellington's Pinot Noir 2004 - a taste-and-talk fest for lovers of the trendy varietal from Jan. 28-Jan. 31. The Hawkes Bay Festival (Feb. 6-Feb. 9) sees open house, if not open bar, at 25 wineries...

...memetic battleground does not as yet include, however, places like Afghanistan. Here are the game preserves for weak and un-adaptive memes, the great game parks for the memetic equivalent of the dodo. We need to introduce the rabbit to their Australia, the zebra mussel to their Mississippi.

...breaded and fried, their flavor and freshness penetrate the domination of the tomato (that's right). The dish begs to be washed down by chewy bread (though the lacklustre bread should really have arrived at the table warm) and sips of sharp Chianti. A daunting tower of giant, succulent mussels are steamed in a classic, light, garlic-white wine sauce. The empty bowl offered for shells was nowhere near the capacity needed to account for the volume of sucked-dry detritus that remained after the mussels were finished. Empty mussel shells were scattered around the table like fallout, creating unsightly...

Seafood risotto was laughably large and formally antithetical to any preconceived notions about the nature of risotto. Literally dozens of steamed mussels (it must be admitted that it will take a while before I can stomach another mussel), clams, and, impossibly enough, more calamari drown a sizeable platter. A spicier, more complex version of the calamari appetizer's tomato sauce married the flavors of the fish. There was indeed risotto underneath the shellfish, though it was only made accessible after much digging. Layers of clothing were shed in the grueling process. A word of advice: it is an exercise...
