| - We were in search of a place with small plates and delicious wine - and My Wine Cellar fit the bill! As we walked in, I was pleased with the dimly lit and intimate space. And live music?! I was sold. With a thin strand of lights placed above the windows, this was the perfect way to wind down from a day of sightseeing.
Because we weren't incredibly hungry, we opted for a few of their small plate options. We first opted for the Seared Shrimp + Kimchi Salsa, which included a rainbow carrot salad. Realizing we were still hungry, we then ordered a flatbread called "The Livin' Easy," which had chef's barbeque sauce, chicken, red onion and cilantro. It's really hard to go wrong with ordering flatbreads ... Both were delicious, but we were really hoping the Seared Shrimp + Kimchi Salsa would have been a LITTLE bit bigger considering it was under the "shared plates" category. Even so, we were both very pleased.
As for the wine, they had everything your little heard could desire. I'm going say something that will surely offend the wine enthusiast reading this (although I DO love wine!), but I can't for the life of me remember the name of the wine we ended up getting. haha I know I first had my eyes set on The Curator, which was a Shiraz, but they were out. Thankfully our waitress was quick to find an earthy red for us that we both loved. And that's what I'll remember ... it was super tasty!
All in all, it was a lovely experience and the live music really topped off the night.
