Description

You'll find rare wines by the glass at the wine bar and hard-to-find bottles in the retail store. The food is sensational, but be forewarned: These are dainty delicacies for those who like to graze while they tipple -- not big plates of grub for hungry cowboys.

    At Cova, if you order the tapas portion of the artisanal cheese plate, you get to pick four cheeses from a list of 12.
