    Columbia Restaurant & the Gonzmart Family’s Wine Philosophy At the Columbia Restaurant we believe the relationship of wine and food is an essential part of the dining experience and that two aspects of elegant dining deserve specialized attention: The preparation and serving of the cuisine and the selection of the finest wines and stemware to accompany it. In keeping with our tradition of serving the most elegant Spanish dishes, we have chosen to feature a collection of Spain's finest wines and a selection of American wines, sparkling whites and Champagne. Our wines are stored in our wine cellar in a climate controlled environment at 55° Fahrenheit with 70% humidity. The Columbia Restaurant’s wine list represents 4th and 5th generation, owner and operators, Richard and Andrea Gonzmart’s lifetime involvement in their family’s business. Their passion for providing guests the best wines from Spain, as well as their personal favorites from California, are reflected in every selection. They believe wines should be affordable and represent great value. Columbia Restaurant's variety of wines illustrates the depth of knowledge and concern the Gonzmart family possesses, by keeping abreast of the wine market in the United States and by traveling to Spain. This is all done for the enjoyment of our guests. We are confident that you will find the perfect wine to make your meal a memorable one.

  • PANSIT PALABOK Rice Noodles with Shrimp Sauce
    20275_Filipino_p044-185_OTP.indd 50 7/20/18 12:41 PM ADOBONG MANOK AT BABOY Classic Adobo THE CLASSIC ADOBO most commonly known in homes and in restaurants throughout the Philippines and in America, adobong manok at baboy, has a silky, fatty, sour sauce. The ingredients for this dish—soy sauce, vinegar, black peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, chicken (manok), and pork (baboy)—are easy to find in any grocery store. Despite the simplicity of the ingredients, you’d be surprised at how different the dish can taste from cook to cook, based on shifts in cooking time or a predilection for sour or salty. Some people add coconut milk; some cooks add a bit of sweetness in the form of sugar, honey, ripe fruit, or even preserves to round out the adobo’s sharp acidity and saltiness. Think of it like you do music: the notes are familiar, but the arrangement is what makes it unique. This is a “dry” adobo, which is less saucy. Try this method at least once, then adjust the proportions to your own preferences. Serve it with rice and crunchy cucumber relish. SERVES 4 TO 6 1 cup (240 ml) white sugarcane 2 bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs Notes: This recipe vinegar (see Key Ingredients, requires long 2 bone-in, skin-on chicken legs page 42) marinating, preferably overnight. 1 pound (455 g) fresh pork belly, 1 cup (240 ml) soy sauce cut into 1-inch (2.5 cm) cubes You could make this dish without the pork 10 garlic cloves, minced 2 tablespoons vegetable oil belly; just double the 2 teaspoons whole black amount of chicken 4 to 6 cups (800 g to 1.2 kg) pieces.

  • Background the Philippines Is an Archipelago (Chain of Islands) Comprised of Over 7,100 Islands in the Western Pacific Ocean. Or
    Beatriz Dykes, PhD, RD, LD, FADA Background The Philippines is an archipelago (chain of islands) comprised of over 7,100 islands in the western Pacific Ocean. Originally inhabited by indigenous tribes such as the Negroid Aetas and the pro-Malays. Beginning in 300 BC up to 1500 AD, massive waves of Malays (from Malaysia, Sumatra, Singapore, Brunei, Burma, and Thailand) immigrated to the islands. Arab, Hindu and Chinese trading also led to permanent settlements during by these different groups during this period. In 1521, Spain colonized the Philippines, naming it after King Phillip II and bringing Christianity with them. The Spanish colonization which lasted 350 years, imparted a sense of identification with Western culture that formed an enduring part of the Philippine consciousness, unmatched anywhere else in Asia. The prevalence of Spanish names to this day (common first names like Ana, Beatriz, Consuelo, Maria and last names as Gonzales, Reyes, and Santos) reflects this long-standing influence of the Spanish culture. The United States acquired the Philippines from Spain for 20 million dollars after winning the Spanish-American war through the Treaty of Paris in 1898, introducing public education for the first time. During this period, health care, sanitation, road building, and a growing economy led to a higher standard of living among Filipinos and the Philippines became the third largest English speaking country in the world. Above all, the US occupation provided a basis for a democratic form of government. World War II had the Filipinos fighting alongside the Americans against the Japanese. The Death March and Corregidor became symbolic of the Philippine alliance with the United States.

  • Case 2: the Company Lassie; Importing Rice
    Case 2: The Company Lassie; importing rice The company Lassie is creative with the scarcity of rice available on the market. In order to ward off the shortage of rice on the world market, Lassie the market leader in the Netherlands, imports more rice from Spain. Stretching along the gently flowing river “Zaan”, is the monumental factory of Lassie located. Lassie started in 1890 in a place called Wormer. "Of course the needed expansions have taken place" says Marjon Kersten, "but it remains a special place." Kersten (44) was director of production of rice producer Lassie, part of Carbonell Netherlands, owned by Spain's Gruppo Sos, which Lassie bought two years ago from Sara Lee. Except for the Dutch factory in Wormer, Kersten is responsible for four other rice mills in Spain and Portugal. "A few times a month I visit the offices in Oporto, Seville and Valencia, she explains. The Wormer plant processes annually some 14,000 tonnes of rice. Most rice is transported across the water from Suriname, French Guyana, Thailand, and partly by train from Italy. The import is dependent on the harvest, quality and price. "We have our regular suppliers, but each year we look from where we import the rice," says Kersten. "Because right now there is a temporary shortage, we import more rice from Spain." The Lassie director does not want to speak of a food crisis. "That's a too big a word. The fact is that the demand for rice is growing and some countries such as Thailand, Vietnam and Egypt, limit their exports to secure its rice stocks.
