Thanks, Mon Oct 27 10:09:14 -0700 2008 80671 Snarf 1 4131972 I don't know if you'd consider just north of Wellesley to be "near" the Carlu, but if you do, you could consider Volo - http://www.barvolo.com/ Mon Oct 27 10:47:40 -0700 2008 4131852 20196 gregclow 1 4132090 Wine bar is kind of specific - are you just looking for a halfway decent place to have a drink?

Wed Oct 29 13:15:41 -0700 2008 4131852 98493 JamieK 2 4137111 Thanks for the tips. Ended up jammed for time, and sensibly realized that having a bevvie before an event sponsored by Courvoisier might have been overkill.....More on the event later.

Would love to hear more thoughts on it. Wed Oct 29 20:34:38 -0700 2008 4137144 80671 Snarf
