Meze

Among

the

many

perks

that come

with

owning

Petit Soleil

is

that

we

MUST,

yes

MUST

try

all the new

places

that open

in

SLO

and

around the county

Meze

Wine Bar and Marketplace

opened

at the end of

2010

in the

newly

refurbished

SLO Railroad District

Very

cool building..

AND

no

darn

earthquake

will

rock

it down?

Really

amazing

and

distinctive

wines by the glass

I started

with

a

delicious

bubbly

Cremant

and

John

had

a

creamy

White Burgundy

the

menus

are

typed

on

lined

binder paper

(nice touch)

First

we

ordered

the

Brussels Sprouts

(a salad with

BS leaves

bacon

marcona almonds

dried cherries

shaved cheese

dressed

fashionably

in a

champagne

vinaigrette)

DE

lish

and the

cheese and charcuterie plate,

oh, yeah!

here it comes....

a

delicious

assortment

of

meats

cheeses

dried fruit and nuts

and

crusty baguette slices

with a

Provencal Rose,

please!

The

cute

chef

...

take a bow

All the goodies

on the

are available

We had

a

charming

afternoon

and

WILL
