Le Caviste, Wine Bar

Leave a comment

Le Caviste is a small and cozy place, ideal for a glass wine and some delicious cheeses and charcuterie.

They only serve French wine but no need to be a connoisseur, the waiter will help you choose what they think you will like  It is not a snobbish Wine Bar with a fake French style, but an authentic and very friendly place. It really reminded us of France.

Everything we had was very good: saucisson, tome, terrine, French butter, cornichons, and bread (refilled without asking).

Great place to go for a Happy hour or before heading to the theatre or a concert.

Update on 6/10/2016: Unfortunately Honoré Bakery has been sold.

What should I try? Tough decision to make!

Everything was so refined and tempting. We came back home with a fantastic Pain au Levain, a Chocolate and Salted Caramel tart (maybe too much caramel), and a pretty good Milk Chocolate and Hazelnut mousse. I need to go back for the Kouign Aman. They have a fabulous one at Crumble and Flake but I would like to try this one.

After a gorgeous walk around Green Lake, you need a hearty meal. Look what we found for lunch!

A cozy place where you can sit on cushions along a sunny window.

Food is simple and delicious: a large choice of sandwiches, a kobe burger, and a soup du jour. I had an amazing Chili Soup and my friend had a crispy tasty baguette sandwich.

They offer a Brunch Menu on Saturday and Sunday that seems to be very famous.
