Last week I was helping a friend with some images for his new wine bar in West Hollywood — Zinque. Tucked away across from the Pacific Design Center, this hidden gem just screams happy hour by inviting you in to sit on their patio drinking a glass of wine on a warm day. The West Hollywood space, formerly occupied by Nishimura, is reminiscent of the original location over on Abbot Kinney, with its open space and wood tabletops and stools. Zinque is the perfect spot for those working in the area as you can pop in for breakfast or lunch and chow down on one of their delicious pastries or breakfast sandwiches, or come back with a group after work for a glass of wine and enjoy one of their flatbreads. Amazing Oysters from Maitre écailler Christophe Happillon and special Paella nights. Open from 6:30 a.m. to 12 a.m. on weekdays, and 2 a.m. on weekends.

Do yourself a favor and pay a visit to Zinque, you won’t be sorry — it’s really that good. Have a look at the images below and you’ll see what I mean.
