Hey Cheff,
Did I meet you last night?

From CB1 article: “Custom American Wine Bar will attract the opposite of gangs and frat boys,” said Yann de Rochefort, who owns Boqueria tapas bar in Manhattan. “The community board should encourage places like Stefan’s.”


Is there a niche around for gang-banger wine bars I wasn't aware of? That really sounds like where I need to be spending my time.

Idiots

Thank god that my neighborhood, Prospect Heights, is the next Cobble Hill. I was beginning to worry.

I would totally hang out at a gangbanger wine bar. Nothing wets the appetite for a night of drug dealing and drivebys like a robust Malbec. Or fights breaking out over which New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc reigns supreme. Yeah, I'd pay cash money to see that.

Bloomberg just lost points with me for being willing to be seen with that douche Guiliani.

careful, wait to Rush Limbaugh hears about PH being new Cobble Hill. It is not what it will become - but what has it done already. Must be some european socialist agenda behind that.
