Ahiru Store: Fresh-baked bread to suit every dish on the menu

Bread and wine: what a great combination. We cannot live on either alone, but put the two together — along with an easygoing attitude and a tasty side menu of home-cooked snacks — and that's the recipe that makes Ahiru Store one of our favorite little wine bars in the city.

Atelier d'I: Plenty of wine — and food to match
