There's a reason many Asians prefer tea with their meals....

I would go with sparkling wine for anything not spicy--Riesling for the spicy stuff.

Or maybe dry sparkler for non spicy--sweet sparkler for spicy.

You could give the option of a balanced Chardonnay with the cheesy lobster and scallops with cream sauce.

Like I recently told Dozer, Gewurztraminer from Alsace.

Try to find a 2005 or 2006 Pieropan, Soave Calvarino. It was highly recommended on another board and I ordered some and found it delicious and I think it would pair well with much of your menu.

Drew, I think you may be on the money.
Since I never eat fish I wasn't going to post my thoughts, but I have had that wine and it seems right in my imagination [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb/smile.gif[/img] Lovely wine, too.

Many thanks! I picked up a few soaves too!
