As many of you know, I am forever looking for my New York City - Firenze/Italia connection. I've found a lovely spot right in my own neighborhood called Vitis La Vineria at 284 Third Avenue. The owner, GianLuca is from Sardinia, and has set this place up to be very intimiate and cozy. And...I get to practice my Italian with him!
He says that Vitis La Vineria is "the embodiment of my passion for wine and Italian cuisine. When you come into Vitis, I hope you feel as though you've walked into my kitchen at home. It's a cozy space, adorned with global art and staffed with knowledgeable servers who will keep you exactly what you like."
One of those servers is Lesya. She is so welcoming & friendly and knowledgeable about the wine selection. We became immediate friends. Go say hi to her and have her suggest a wine and something delish off the menu. Tell her Patricia sent you.
So if you're looking for a cool place to go with friends, out on a date, or going solo, I highly recommend checking out Vitis La Vineria. The wine and the food are amazing!
Maybe I'll see you there.
Big Love,
PatriciaG
