Literanista February 15, 2011

Via UrbanDaddy and Shelf Awareness comes news of a cool new spot in Boston.  Tres Gatos, offers patrons a nice mix of Tapas and drinks, as well books and music to browse, buy and enjoy.

See slideshow

I’ll have to check it out when I go to Boston in April. In the meantime, the closet thing we’ve got here in New York City is the East Harlem’s New Vinyl Wine shop (minus the books).
