I was reading the NY Times when I ran across the restaurant review for….
DBGB Kitchen and Bar
★★
Food looks good, exotic and pricey but what caught my eye was the wine recommendation. Scroll down to see for yourself.
299 Bowery (Houston Street),
East Village; (212) 933-5300.
ATMOSPHERE An open, vaguely industrial space combines the elegance of polished concrete, large mirrors and soft leather booths with the simple beauty of stacked boxes of restaurant supplies.
SOUND LEVEL Given all the stone and wire and glass, lower than you’d think.
RECOMMENDED DISHES Appetizers: blood sausage; crispy tripe; veal tongues; iceberg salad; matzo-ball soup; more sausages. Main courses: Arctic char; lamb duo; more sausages.
WINE LIST Totally acceptable selection, but much better to experiment among the 23 beers on tap and large selection of bottled beers that have traveled here from Britain, from Brooklyn, from Germany, from France.
Looks like beer is being mentioned as a better pairing.
