Vino At Trios

Pizza and wine! Two of my favorite things for under $20, was I dreaming? No! Vino At Trios a jewel in the city of Alhambra, has that and more!

 A small business in the area, that can easily be missed unless you have a person to guide you there, or you stumble upon while driving the streets of Alhambra.

"Vino is an amazing establishment with a great sophisticated atmosphere," Connie Alonzo, a frequent guest at Vino."You don't need to go far for the level of sophistication that you find at Vino."

I'm not from the area of Alhambra, but the trip to Vino was well worth it, and with a server like Jesus Evangelista, it is definitely a place that I will be hitting up again and bring a couple of friends to experience the delicious pizza, even people who aren't crust lovers (like me) will definitely gobble down Vino's pizza crust, their own recipe with rosemary and wine. 

So come to Vino and enjoy a great chorizo and clam pizza; addicting if I may add, and with a pleasant smoky flavor feel to it. And a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon; smooth tasting by the way! 

Vino's happy hour is a great time to come check it out (Tuesday- Friday 3m-6pm and all day Sunday, 3 - close), so even if you are on a budget there's no reason why you shouldn't treat yourself to Vino while you have Jazz music playing in the background.

Plus, I hear Vino holds several events in which you can try other kinds of wine, and on certain days they host belly dancing nights.

Total Spent at Vinos:
Chorizo & Clams pizza             $7.00
Cabernet Sauvignon                $5.00
And of course, tax                    $1.08

$13.08 in total for pizza and wine, this place is a steal, especially during happy hour.

I can't wait to come back and try other items on their menu.

So in Troddel points this place is 5/5







Got to love the vast array of the wine collection

Daiso

This week's Troddeling in Wonderland, I found myself going to Daiso Japan in the City of Hacienda Heights. Daiso is basically the Japanese version of Dollar Tree or 99 Cent Stores, although the prices at Daiso are mostly $1.50, unless otherwise noted, which personally it's not that bad for the variety of great merchandise they carry, most of which are Japanese, although on most items it says made in China, but its still good stuff for your dollar, especially when so many items are on the cute side that I could not resist picking a few items and making a mental shopping list of things to buy on my next visit. If any of you guys are ever in the Hacienda Heights, feel free to check out Daiso. Warning: Parking can get a bit scary, due the many eateries in the shopping area, some which are on my list of stopping by and checking them out, including a really cute bakery!


So stuff that I bought at Daiso Japan:
 Just listing a few.

 -Chocolate Pocky          $1.50 (now I know where to stock on my addiction)

-Animal bodywash mitten    $1.50 (it was just so cute, I couldn't resist)

Including a few other things I bought there, the total came out to $9
68.

Is this worth Troddeling?
In Troddel points, I give it.
