Wine Tasting Menu

2010 DeSante – Sauvignon Blanc
Napa Valley, CA
Winemaker for Tierra Roja and Mellowood, David DeSante, does not disapoint with his white wines. This Old Vine Sauvignon Blanc has aromas of white peach, dried rose petal and pebbly minerality with key lime, fresh pear and jasmine tea on the palate.

2009 Maldonado Parr Vineyard – Chardonnay
Napa Valley, CA
A big, rich and unctuous chardonnay with brilliant aromas of caramel, brown butter, quince, pear, grilled fig, vanilla and subtle hints of almond. There is a persistent finish ending with a touch of vanilla and expansive minerality.

2008 Mueller – Pinot Noir
Russian River Valley, CA
This well-balanced RRV Pinot Noir displays aromas of sweet Ranier cherries, raspberry and toasted oak while the flavor adds great balance of spice and cherry with a lingering finish.

2007 Abiouness – Sangiovese
Mendocino, CA
Norfolk native and winemaker, Nicole Abiouness, has made a gorgeous new world Sangiovese. This great food wine has hints of dried violets, chocolate covered cherries and black licorice on the nose that carry through to the palate in addition to ripe stone fruits, black tea and big soft tannins.

2008 Mellowood – Zinfandel
Sierra Foothills, CA
Grape grower, Linda Neal and wine maker, David DeSante collaborate to produce this zinfandel with a juicy nose and well balanced palate. Candied strawberry, raspberry syrup, cola and a hint of violet on the nose lead into a toasty vanilla ribbon surrounded by black cherry on the palate. There is a nice acidity throughout and the wine ends with toasty, vanilla cherry syrup.

2008 Trespass – Cabernet Franc
St. Helena, CA
Winemaker, Kirk Venge, created this gorgeous Cab Franc. It has layers of ripe red berry, fresh black cherry, warm oak, vanilla and loads of finesse. The palate is lifted and delicate with bright acidity and smooth tannin follow through.

2008 Hunnicutt – Caberent Sauvignon
Napa Valley, CA
Another gorgeous wine from Kirk Venge. The nose exhibits a wide array of black cherry, cinnamon, clove, brown sugar and barrel vanillin. Rich, focused flavors of black fruit lead the complex, heady mixture of tannin, terroir and texture.

Dough Boy’s Receives Another Glowing Review

“I wanted to take a minute to thank you and your entire staff for a wonderful eating adventure. All of our students loved the food and my administrative staff loved the catered food. I couldn’t have asked for a better response to our needs. I want to say personally, that you are the best at what you do. I look forward to contacting you again on our next trip down. Additionally, one of the best parts to this was seeing your restaurant completely full while other restaurants on Atlantic were empty. I even heard one family walking down Atlantic say “that place is crowded, it must be real good lets go in there,” and sure enough they walked in and sat down.

Thanks again for all you did.”
David

Meters bring change to homeless community

doughadmin — Mon, 11 Apr 2011 14:52:03 +0000

VIRGINIA BEACH — A pilot program to help homeless people seems to be paying off one coin at a time.

Feed the homeless meter

In August, Virginia Beach installed eight meters at the Oceanfront which collect money that goes towards programs to benefit the homeless in the city.

To date, the effort has collected about $800. Five of the meters are sponsored, at a rate of $1,000 per meter, raising an additional $5,000.

“I think you can be confident that when it goes in a meter, it’s going to the right place,” offers George Kotarides, owner of Dough Boy’s Pizza Restaurants, one of the meter sponsors.

“It’s not just giving them a meal. It’s getting them an identification card. It’s getting them transportation. It’s helping them learn how to find a job,” says Kotarides. “You want it to go somewhere where there may be sort of a template in place to kind of give them a road map to becoming, you know, productive citizens and recovering from whatever they are dealing with.”

“I love the idea,” Anna Johnson tells 13News.

Johnson unloaded some change into the meter at 17th Street and the Boardwalk late Monday. She and her family are visiting her son who lives here.

“We always have loose change. We take it out, put it on the counter, don’t know what to do with it. Great idea,” Johnson says.

“We’ve been here in the summer numerous times. I mean, you guys could make a killing on this. You really would, especially with kids that want to go there and turn the knob and see how far it goes like I just did,” she states. “It’s great. You know, they’ll go in and grab a soda or something, it’s like $1.26, and they’ll come and just put the rest of it in there.”

The city is supposed to evaluate the program at the 1-year mark, determining whether it should continue, be expanded, or end.
