The right dinner spot is crucial for a good date, but not as crucial as what you've
got in store afterward.
A nameless wine-soaked spot the size of your bedroom—and the color of Prince's—sounds about
right. We'll go ahead and dub it The City's Smallest Wine
Bar, quietly opening Friday.
A sign-free hideaway sandwiched between the Delancey and Mission
Cantina, this is a very small (and, it must be said, very purple) room encased in velvet that'll seat
about a half-dozen couples, max. Drop into a pair of grape-colored antique chairs and start
working through some Napa reds—this month, the focus is on wines from a few hours north, but you can
expect the selection to refresh by the time you bring in your next date, and the one after
that…
The owner will tell you it's technically Delancey's wine room, but it has its own entrance, and you can mix
and match wines from both lists to create your own flights. Overall, it's not what you would've expected
from the man behind the Bowery…
But it should help lay the groundwork for your favorite after-after-dinner spot.
