  • A bar that has bottles that you can't get from the LCBO? Sign. Me. Up. VIBE It's pretty basic in here. High top tables and lots of wood and mirrors fill the periphery of this small space. And the clientele? My friends! Ha. You will have to walk up to the chalkboard to read the menu. Noone will make fun of you, I promise. :) WE DRANK What a great selection of wines! (What else do you expect from a winebar?) I was lucky to have come here with a wine writer and he recommended the full bodied red Colle Petrito Aglianico, from Minervino Murge, Italy 2008. I loved the smoothness of this wine and it went perfectly with the spicy apps that we had. Wine writer friend likes more acidity in his wine so he had the Domaine Breton Trinchi , Cabernet Franc from Bourgeil, France. A bit spicier and much for my taste. He also had the popular Villa Rubini which had a very peppery taste. He loved it but not my taste. Melissa, our server/bartender, knew our tastes and was able to help us out. She's really knowledgeable and super friendly. WE ATE I was all ready to get these croquettes everyone was talking about to find out they were not on the menu that night. BOO URNS. They had a different menu on our night because the main chefs weren't in town and it was Korean themed (and Korean is the usual influence on the regular menu). So we got the Ginger popped chicken and pork belly tacos with wasabi mayo and kimchi on the side. Delish Delish DELISH. I could have ordered two but I wanted something else so we ordered off of their staple cheese/charcuterie list on the chalkboard. We got a hard cheese (Beemster) and a soft cheese (the Pierre Robert triple cream). Both were great and complemented the meat we had. And the Pierre Robert is DANGEROUS. Like I could eat at least 500 grams err 1000 grams of it in one sitting. A note: it's not cheap here! But we had two glasses each of wine and the above food items OBLIGATORY CATCHY REMARK These ladies are mavericks! (Zing). A great date place, especially if you're dating an alcohol snob. But lacks the pretentiousness of other bars. Me likey! A nice addition to the Queen West strip and alternative to Czehoski's.
