More Wine?
Other, more "full service" restaurants with extensive and/or unusual wine lists
include
Aszú, and
L'Express.
Pullman
and

also serve "tapas"-style dishes (which are completely optional -
you can simply have a drink there) while
Bu is more oriented towards lighter
Italian fare (at least one order of food per table required, although it
could simply be an appetizer to share).
