Wines at DomaineLA (Photo by djjewelz via the LAist Featured Photos pool on Flickr) When it comes to wine and food, it's all about the power of the pairing, and it's always a bonus if someone in the know is doing the matching up.

And yet, here it is, wrapped around the bastion of Jewish cuisine, the Matzo Ball. This is the irreverent pork-loving work of Ilan Hall, the Top Chef Season 2 winner, whose The Gorbals in DTLA pays homage to Scottish and Jewish food...all at once. So does...
