so wine has surpassed beer as the most consumed alcoholic beverage in the United States, and it's time for y'all to prove itI work part-time at a place called Silver Lake Wine, a wine shop at 2395 Glendale Blvd in Silverlake known for showcasing small, boutique wineries and having incredible wines at a very affordable price (anywhere from $7.75-$2000/bottle)what's really nice about Silver Lake Wine is that there are wine tastings three days a week:Monday Night (5-9pm): 1 white, 2 reds with cheese from the Cheese Store of Silverlake for $12/per personThursday Night (5-9pm): white flight or red flight with La Brea Bakery bread and artesian butter (from $10-12/per person)Sunday Afternoon (3:00-4:30pm): this is more like a class. by reservation, limited to about 45-50 guests. each sunday there is a new theme, and food is paired by a local chef or by a staff favorite restaurant in Los Angeles. 5 wines and food, $20/per personcome down to Silver Lake Wine, put yourself on the mailing list, and get ready for your wine experience and knowledge to sky rocket-Matthew

Anybody have any cool plans for St. Patrick's Day? My friends and I want to hit up an awesome Irish Pub but we're afraid they're all going to be WAY too packed. Are there any pubs in the area that won't be crazy packed and still offer a good time??

I used to love The Belmont (LaCienega & Melrose) but now its become tres cheesy and trashy post 10pm. The food is decent but the crowd is questionable. I dig it on a Tuesday night - but never again on a weekend.

The Dime (on Fairfax) is a great bar with a cool vibe. It's the parent to the new-overhyped Winston's which is close by. The Dime has a great mix of people - not too trendy but definitely cool. I just wish there was a little more space. They play great music.
It also has a NY feel which is awesome.

Cabana - a club in Hollywood - used to be so fucking hot. Now its so cheesy and filled with typical B-list-celeb-hangers-on. Ew. No club in LA can last for more than 18 months.

My friend always says "A good club fades but good bars never do" - soooo true.
Jones on Santa Monica & Formosa is awesome. It'll never become old.
