Loving LA

If ever my husband and I want to stop off somewhere on our way to a movie say, or meet friends for a late dinner – there is one divine little wine bar we inevitably end up at, and that is Venice Beach Wines. Not only do they have a great selection of wines, but they also have delicious appetizers and things to munch on. I’ve very much enjoyed their cheese and charcuterie selections – which are delicious with some interesting choices to be had; however people swear by the Brie Hot Pot so one of these days I will have to give in to temptation. This is the perfect spot for a quick bite and a glass of wine with a friend, but it’s so tiny it’s not really suitable for a large group.  I’m not kidding, it is really small, so it can get pretty crowded – but a weeknight after 10pm or before 7pm should see you sorted.  The atmosphere is cosy and low key, very Venice – you will inevitably get chatting to the folks sitting next to you, and if they aren’t friends when you start, they will be by the time you leave. Next time we hit Spark on Rose, this may be where we end up for a spot of a debriefing. See you there!
