Bar Lamar

So I may have a slight love affair with Whole Foods Market. Not only am I in love with the company itself and their quest to provide natural and organic products to the public, but I am also in love with their prepared foods section- not to mention they have the world's greatest sandwich, but that story is for another time and another post. 

I'm fortunate to live in Austin, TX, home to the Whole Foods headquarters. If you've never been to the Whole Foods headquarters, I must say it's quite the experience. It so much more than a grocery store. First off, the mere size of the the store is impressive and possibly overwhelming. You could easily kill a couple hours just meandering through the aisles. But you could also stop in for a message or enjoy a rooftop movie in the summer and ice skating during the holidays, and of course this being the live music capital, you could stop in for live music on a Thursday evening. 


Tonight however, I discovered the Whole Foods wine bar, Bar Lamar. It's the perfect environment to enjoy a pint or glass with friends. And if you're feeling munchie they offer cheese plates, all at reasonable price. Or make it a full on dinner experience, and grab something from the prepared food section to enjoy while you sip on your drink.

Bottom line, I love it because it's fun and simple and something a little different to help liven up a weekday night.
