Vin Vie opened a new branch in South Sanlitun, just down the road from Haidilao and an adult store named SEXY TOWN. This is the bowels of Sanli, a long-forgotten strip of ancient establishments like Q Bar and Beer Mania. Vin Vie, to some extent, fits the part. It’s homey in a way that makes it seem like it’s been around for years. Bookshelves full of wine bottles line the walls, and a brick fireplace befitting of an English country manor takes center stage. But you, my friend, are here for the food, which is French and Japanese with a smattering of Korean and even Spanish influences (there are small plates). The menu is a 10-page affair with everything from pork paté to Japanese sukiyaki, and every dish we try is excellent. It all makes for a surprisingly elegant dinner in a less-than-elegant part of town.
