Jackie Says: This space has a great vibe – it’s a cross between a speakeasy (dark and intimate) and Irish Pub (comfortable and friendly). The eclectic menu changes regularly and has a little something for everyone. The prices are very reasonable and they offer over 50 types of beer.

November 14, 2012: Italian Mixer @ Dolce Vita Cafe – Recap
Mammamia! What an incredible evening! Mario Martinoli of Dolce Vita Cafe, Daiana Baldanzi of Academy of Foreign Languages, Bianca Dellepiane of Bridges to Italy, Cosimo Pizzulli of Pizzulli Family Wines and Chase Hoyt of Wine Doctor hosted a fabulous wine tasting event last night at Dolce Vita Cafe! Cosimo presented four of his amazing wines – a Sangiovese, Dolcetto, Barbera and Nebbiolo – and Mario paired each one with an authentic pasta dish. Over fifty foodies and oenophiles attended the event and it was such a success, I imagine they’ll be planning another one in the not too distant future. There was a raffle for a wine saving device from Wine Doctor and luck was on my side once again! I think this was the third time I’ve won the raffle at these events so I’m now officially removing myself from future drawings. If my name is picked again, I will gracefully recuse myself! Pinky-swear!
