Zum Schneider works for me

I had always heard people rave about this Bavarian bierhaus in Alphabet City, Zum Schneider (Avenue C and (not sure?) maybe 7th Street?), but figured it was off limits to me, since we celiacs can't drink regular beer. Many a weekend night I had strolled past the brightly-lit, always-packed place and gazed longingly at the long wooden tables and benches filled with jolly groups of friends. Well, Friday night I gave it a shot. Guess what, celiacs? Not only do they have a zillion German beers, they also offer a nice selection of German wines! I enjoyed a lovely glass of gruner veltliner with my friends. (And then I enjoyed it a couple more times.) Much recommended!
