There are wonderful things about fine dining: the clink of glassware; the elaborate display of rich foods placed in front of you; a clean white tablecloth beneath the tall stems of crystal holding red pools of wine; high-minded chatter from surrounding tables and hands touching in the middle of your own. But when the weather is warm on those halcyon days of late summer and early fall, the last thing you want to do is tuck in your shirt and sit in an air-conditioned restaurant. This is the time of year for picnics, for packing an extravagant assortment of comestibles, spreading a cloth on a patch of grassy meadow and grabbing your lover by the hand to the sound of Kenny Chesney’s “Summertime”.
In this classic picnic basket we’ve combined essential ingredients like Champagne grapes and delicious cheeses with some surprising additions, like bestselling couples’ literature, a safari bar kit from India and a bottle of wine from northern Spain. If you don’t find yourself falling in love as the sun sets, well, you’ve probably got very little game indeed.
