A Champagne bar that lets you order a half bottle
Most sparkling wine programs are built to sell magnums to tables of six. The Riddler is built for two people who want something cold and serious on a Tuesday, which is a much harder business and a much better bar.
The grower list is where the value hides — Chartogne-Taillet by the glass at a price that would be a bottle markup elsewhere. Get the fries. This is not a suggestion.
