BarFood meets Tasca in Los Feliz.
I’m really sad.
Me being a Westside girl. You being…..god knows where. I know my chances of coming back to you is slim to none. I mean, Los Feliz? You might as well be in China. Vinoteca will soon fade away as a pleasant memory as being that passionate one time fling in Tijuana.
I will miss your oaky, sophisticated interior. The vast selection of beers and wine on tap! The cool blast of AC that welcomed me as I trekked down that (god awful) hill from the Greek Theatre.
I’m jealous of your other lovers that will get to enjoy your awesome 4-7 happy hour specials. Wines and beer from 6 bucks? Super heavy pours? Thank you for introducing me to Brachetto. It is now my new favorite wine. And that bread! I’m sorry I had three baskets full :(
Your food? Full of win. We had a feast dining on Ceviche Vinoteca, Jamon Serrano, Fritto Misto Di Pesce, Mushroom Polenta. The ceviche portion was humongous and delicious. The fried calamari was breaded lightly and the shrimp/fish/zucchini really jazzed it up. The mushroom polenta was earthy, well seasoned and light. And the jamon! Simply amazing. Way to not cheapen or cheat your customers as many places do for their “happy hour” specials.
Thank you for letting us kill a couple hours before our show. You were packed but never rushed us. Such a wonderful, chill atmosphere. You and me? Made For Each Other.
Now the question is, when are you moving to the Westside? (Popped collars are optional but recommended.)
