Not sure how I’ve lived in NYC without knowing about this place but it’s fair to say my life is now a step closer to being complete.
Jadis is an affordable, spacious and unpretentious wine bar on the LES. Cavernous and comfy, it has small, intimate tables but also deep couches for bigger parties (a wine-bar rarity). Most bottles are under $29; go on Monday to save 30% on bottles over $30. Wines by the glass are half-price from 5pm to 7pm Tuesday through Saturday.
And the cheese, glorious cheese! We had manchego, camembert, brie goat and gruyere and oh, about an entire baguette. They do not skimp on portions. The food was plentiful enough for five people, but delicious enough that the two of us cleaned up. Oops.
I’ve been there too! This place rocks! Try the Russian River Valley Pinot Noir. Delicious.
