Wine with Asian foods??

[wdonovan]

So then what wine goes with all you can eat Chinese buffet?

Actually something to ponder. Unless going into an Asian restaurant with particular dishes in mind (or cooking at home) you are faced with an array of choices, each wanting it's own discreet "perfect" pairing. What do you bring?
My vote (and I agonized over it) is: Mumms Carte Classique. Why? I believe that Champagne is the most versatile wine for pairing. Also the CC is an extra dry rather than brut. Not our favorite type but I think it works better here than say a Charles Heidsick NV (undoubtedly a great "food" wine). The slight sweetness may help douse any fires you may start with a spicy Thai or Indian dish. I think this sweetness also works like a reset button for your palate between different tastes.

So what bottle would you bring?
