3500 Winehaus and Robust

Stopped by the 3500 Winehaus on Watson for a Friday patio casual meal. Definitely get there before 7 PM and take advantage of the Happy Hour prices. It is an opportunity to try some amazing wines for a great price. Service was a bit slow but who cares when you are enjoying wine outside. The cheese tray was substantial and very good. The Italian meats platter took a little extra time as it was cut fresh for us, but it was worth it. I took home the prosciutto we didn't finish and cooked it like bacon the next morning and it was really good. It is a thick cut so easier to eat after a few minutes in a frying pan.

To contrast this with Robust in Webster Groves, I would say that the price will keep me going back to the Winehaus. Though I have always loved Robust, the last visit was quite pricey and not something you can do on a regular basis. We enjoyed some great wines and the food was very good as well. But even with a gift card, it was a big $$ bill.
