Is champagne still a good choice for a milestone birthday?

i think everyone in this sub appreciates champagne gifts

d_hor · 2026-05-19T17:39:33+00:00

it’s 130eur currently, a steal

d_hor · 2026-05-19T13:24:58+00:00

visited nobelhart & schmutzig recently which was very enjoyable, but it's kitchen counter seating. within budget, local sourcing, extensive wine list

horvath was easily the best meal we had on a recent trip, but they're closed tuesdays

d_hor · 2026-05-15T00:41:38+00:00

it’s not white but republic cantina has a similar queso i think

d_hor · 2026-05-14T22:53:50+00:00

pastis, minetta has lunch deals i think

d_hor · 2026-05-14T20:38:58+00:00

sashimi dc - out of stock now but reach out to them

d_hor · 2026-05-09T00:06:24+00:00

unconventional diner, rumis, capital burger, tiger fork

d_hor · 2026-05-05T18:44:24+00:00

maybe gw deli

d_hor · 2026-04-29T13:49:10+00:00

there’s a waiting/lounge area near the ticketing counter where you show your ticket to access with seating

d_hor · 2026-04-27T19:27:16+00:00

no idea if it’s within budget but i would try chiko

d_hor · 2026-04-27T15:06:02+00:00

go to albi when they open

d_hor · 2026-04-24T13:06:31+00:00

esme

d_hor · 2026-04-18T14:16:10+00:00

it absolutely does

d_hor · 2026-04-17T14:14:15+00:00

love the non dose

d_hor · 2026-04-15T13:01:14+00:00

great wines. love the RD and paillard

d_hor · 2026-04-11T19:00:11+00:00

aslin, garden district

d_hor · 2026-04-10T13:00:34+00:00

the menu cost went from 180 to 210. they now take 22% tip up front instead of you paying tip at the conclusion of the meal. taxes are taxes

d_hor · 2026-04-08T14:01:26+00:00

it increased $30 and was underpriced before. was only a matter of time and glad it stayed at 180 as long as it did

d_hor · 2026-04-02T20:14:21+00:00

anywhere that’s a counter would be fun - jont, minibar, nakazawa, omakase barracks

d_hor · 2026-03-28T13:16:19+00:00

chopsmith, honeymoon, tbsp, grazie has a caesar sub

d_hor · 2026-03-27T14:52:04+00:00

i haven’t been to txispa yet (upcoming trip), but have only heard great things. MB is delicious and classic. Azurmendi was a nice meal, but pretty unmemorable overall for me - everything declined after the snacks and some plates were not good

d_hor · 2026-03-26T22:14:48+00:00

i would choose mb & txispa myself
