Much has been made of Swirl and it's inspired decor done on the cheap as well as it's Being John Malkovich-esque "1/2" address. Don't get me wrong, it's cute and twee. With sewing machine stands for tables, drawers filled with customer's wishes, It's tweer than a unicorn's dick. But the menu and wine selection are all about sophistication.
The charcuterie board and pates are amazing. The bread is nice and rustic. And... how can you say no to creme caramel?
I have a new favourite wine thanks to the wonderful hostess/owner Janean! Montepulciano d'Abruzzo!
Perfect as an evening capper to Nuit Blanche or what have you. Also..takeaway jars!
