Our thoughtful wine list is international and eclectic. We also feature wines from California African-American Vintners as well as wines from the South of France, where Tanya completed her first stagiere position. Look for a few of your favorite microbrews on tap. VIBE. The term “soul food” emerged at the same time as soul music; so naturally, music is a significant part of the experience at BSK.
