They might have delivered the classic line "Let's do some
gratuitous violence", but for the MacManus brothers,
violence is never gratuitous: it's justice, delivered bloody
and with a side of dry Irish wit. And another side of beer.

The Drunken Horse
A seasoned vet gives Chelsea a new wine bar

225 10th Ave, btw 23rd and 24th St; Chelsea; 212.604.0505

Ah, spring, a time of year when signs of life pop-up around
the city, from trees blossoming in Central Park, to
cleavage. Also popping up, a new wine bar from the Turks &
Frogs guys: The Drunken Horse.

Split into an intimate, glass door'd wooden bar dimly lit by
wrought iron-framed paper lanterns & sparsely populated with
mirrors/small paintings, plus an equally quaint exposed
brick dining room, the retractable glass-fronted Horse is a
spankin' fresh grapehooch joint from the well-versed T&F
crew; the name comes from a film about a Kurdish youth who
smuggles truck tires into Iraq on horses they feed liqueur
to keep warm, which sounds hilarious except everyone dies or
something. Weighing in at just under 50 carefully-selected,
reasonably priced globe trotting vinos (half avail by the
glass), the tipple menu hits Champagne, Cava, and Prosecco
before moving to the whites like Sauvignon Blanc from New
Zealand's Clifford Bay, and Pinot Grigio from Italy's Cesari
Due Torri, and reds from Jean Bousquet's '07 Malbec
(Argentina) to Pinot Noir from Oregon's Primarius -- hey,
after surviving dysentery, snake bites, and river forgings,
getting a drink would be your primary concern too. Beyond
the bottle, a focused selection of cheeses is similarly
itinerant (Le Marechal from Switzerland, Farmhouse Cheddar
from England...), charcuterie includes prosciutto di Parma
and Turkish pastrami, and there're Med apps like eggplant w/
tomatoes & green pepper sauce, a feta-stuffed fried phyllo
roll, and grilled cheese sandos filled with pastrami or "dry
beef sausage" (dry beef being what happens when two
Englishmen don't see eye to eye).

End-of-dinner options max at two on either side, with avail
quaffs being two ports from Rozes (a late bottle vintage and
a tawny), and desserts comprised of baklava and chocolate
truffles, which regardless of the season will help you
blossom into more you.
