Even though wine has become popular with even the average Joe these days, a lot of wine drinkers still confess to being a little intimidated when it comes to figuring out what to order in a restaurant. Personally, I've never gotten this. Food and wine - they don't scare me! I eat what I like and I drink what I like, and if my server or sommelier has a problem with that TBSS (too bad so sad) sucker. But, for those who are still freaked about the whole wine and food thing, this book review by Blog Critics might be helpful:

In many ways, the format of What to Drink with What You Eat resembles a substantial wine/food pairing encyclopedia specifically designed to be quickly skimmed before heading off to a restaurant or purchasing wine for a dinner party. For example, let's say you are entertaining clients at a steakhouse, and want to sound intelligent about wine. You know red wine typically goes with red meat, but which red? Old world or new? And what are the virtues of each? By spending just five minutes with this book (and perhaps jotting down some notes) you will be able to help your guests order a Shiraz, Barbaresco, Barolo, or good old Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon based on the elements of the sauce and cut of meat they choose.
