| - This is a lovely spot in Sycamore Commons - on the outside, you have a table (tables?), where on a nice afternoon you can sit and watch the fountain if it is flowing, or simply watch people in the other shops. On the inside, you have a well-appointed interior, with bottles of wine all around, in a somewhat darkened room. It is actually quite nice. Even the menu sounds reasonable, but then most do.
Unfortunately the best choice at that point is probably to leave, because that is about as good as it gets. The service is really not great. Asking for advice results in getting not much more than a blank stare, so you are on your own. Nothing wrong with that, as we are grown ups (well, most of the time). Soldiering on, we chose a charcuterie-style meat and cheese offering, because meat and cheese.
For $15, you get a smattering of both, on a small plate, with a couple tiny pieces of bread. Presentation is not brought into the equation. You could do this in your kitchen, and with even a moment's thought, you could do a whole lot better (for a much better price, of course). Not a great choice, and as there wasn't much direction, perhaps it would have been best to start with some of that wine...
