And we thought waiting until Christmas morning was rough! U Street neighborhood bar and restaurant Vinoteca is adding some merry mystery to the season — but you’ll have to wait until 2013 rolls around to dig in.
From cheese and charcuterie selections to principal duck and meat dishes and featured fishes, Vinoteca is a go-to gathering spot for good times and a good meal. And now owner Paul Carlson has the secret sauce to keep you coming back for more.
All month long, every diner (dinner and brunch) will receive a ‘mystery’ card, redeemable after the 1st of the new year. But there’s a catch. The card must remain sealed until the server opens it upon your return January 1-31, 2013.
Good things come to those who wait — and can keep their hands off during the holidays! Gifts range from wine classes, gift certificates worth up to $100, all-night happy hours, bottles of wine and other treats.
