125/365 A cool wine-bar


A couple of weeks ago, we found this really nice wine-bar in a side-street behind some major department stores in the city centre. We went there again tonight for drinks and dinner before dance class. They have an excellent choice of wines by the glass, and the food was really good, too. Their outdoor seating is lovely, with blankets over the chairs, in case it gets cold; indoors, it's pretty, too, but the weather was fine for sitting outside both times we've been there.

I picked this photo for my first choice, because I like it as a photo - the mix of indoor and outdoor bits, the reflection not completely covering the inside; I took it from where we sat looking inside.



However, to give more of an idea of what a cool place it is, I thought I'd add this pic of the interior: they have a number of chandeliers that all consist of bits of glass - this one being the biggest of them. You can see bits of glass bowls and dessert dishes and all sorts of things made from cut glass on them - pretty much whole dishes on this big one, but often broken bits on the smaller ones. :D


We do hope to get there some time when they have someone playing the piano there. :)
