Locals by birth (not re-location)...they are an un-ending source of things to do...places to go...things to eat...everything right up our alley.
We started the night at Vin de Set a rooftop bar and bistro. It is an incredible location around the corner from LaFayette Square and overlooks the city including the Arch and the Brewery.
Specializing in French food, Vin de Set does an incredible job of presenting you French fare in a relaxed and "un-stuffy" way.
We spent 3 hours at dinner enjoying drinks, food, and conversation. It is such a pleasure to experience a new place and for the feeling to be just right. Vin de Set offers up the perfect ambiance for a good time.
Word on the street is that as the weather gets warmer they set up live music on the rooftop---you know just in case the atmosphere wasn't already perfect.
After an awesome dinner ( Both Red and I had the Duck Confit...but the stand-outs were the savory crepes and cheese plate we started the meal with)...we headed to Lafayette Square to the Chocolate Bar.
And, Yes. It was exactly what you think it is. A blend of drinks with dessert...and a side offering of small plates (if dinner wasn't enough)..but really the desserts are the point here.
After scarfing down the complimentary chocolate chip cookies, we had a Bailey's ice-cream Martini...man oh man...
Then for "dessert" (because the drink was not enough my friends..let's remember that we are at the Chocolate Bar)...
I had the Caramel Latte Cheesecake...and it was delectable..
We sat there happily, groggily, and fully indulged.
It was a wonderful night. Both restaurants are worth the trip into the city...and trust me you will be satisfied.
Enjoy your Sunday!
