I can't remember the last time I had to book for happy hour anywhere, but I guess something involving a tapas buffet would warrant it. That's what you get at the Old Vine Café's new Monday-night event, launching on July 20. Doors open at 4:30 p.m. and close at 8:00 p.m.

The buffet costs $15 each, while glasses of sangría go for $5 and select glasses of wine are $6 (a discount of 15 per cent applies to any bottle on the regular wine list). Note that there's a one-drink minimum per person.

In other Old Vine news, a three-course tasting menu is now available for 5:00 p.m. and 5:30 p.m. reservations, from Tuesday to Thursday. It looks interesting (CLICK HERE for the full menu), but, I'm sorry, I'm not eating dinner at that time. I'm not four years old!
