One of my favorite places to go in LA when you've got some bottles to pop, and Even better when you don't! My friend Molly texted to say she'd have some open bottles and did we feel like heading over to Barbara's to drink and get some food. Always a treat, but extraordinarily so, when Eric, el jeffe, is sitting at your table with you, and willing to take a run through Barbara's serious, and oh so super friendly priced for wine lovers list. Barbara is a true oenophile and has stocked her cellar with beautiful bottles for years. The thing is, her love, outweighs demand at what is a great bbq and beer joint. What ends up happening, is that if you know where to look, you can find, no, I'm not kidding you, a 1996 Maison Joseph Drouhin Volnay Clos des Chenes Premier Cru for $44! That's right, you heard me, 96 drouhin p-cru for $44! Granted, not every bottle is there (sorry folks, those Jayer-Gilles are long gone) but with a little bit of hunting skill, you can find some real treasures. Get on down for the art walk coming up soon, and ask for the wine list, but give 'em time to search....
