The great news is that the wine bar is fantastic! \n\nPips has a special Enomatic machine where you just go up and serve yourself pours of wine! They have a selection of about 30 wines from all different regions. Go to the bartender and load money on a special wine tasting card - we find that about $40 will fix a couple up for the entire night! \n\nAt the top of the machine are wine glasses - just pick a glass and slide in your card and get a taste of wine. You can purchase a 1 ounce, 3 ounce or 5 ounce pour, and the prices range from about $1.50 - $8 a taste. Your wine tasting card is deducted with each purchase you make. \n\nWe love going to the wine bar because it is a great way to try out new wines for not much money. Also on Thursdays, all food and wine in the bar area is half off!"^^ . "2009-02-16T00:00:00"^^ . "0"^^ . . "0"^^ .
