With the amount of flights at BIN 36, you might think you're looking at an airport's information board instead of a menu. While you won't be boarding any airplanes, you can order a flight of wine or cheese, no ticket necessary, and sample a bit of everything. Wine tasting flights include assortments of sparkling, red and white, and cheese flights include variations of goat, cow and sheep cheeses. Wine flights average about $15 and cheese flights between $12-$35. It's impossible to travel off course as the menu maps out the name, ingredients and country of origin for each of your flight selections.

If flying scares you, stay grounded by sticking to the contemporary American menu. Soups, salads and sandwiches (try the wood-grilled burger or French dip) abound, but there are also fancier items like duck, swordfish and oysters on the half-shell. Entrees range in price from $6-$25. Wine pairing—whether matched with cheese, main courses or dessert—is as easy as paint-by-number; Bin takes the courtesy of pairing each dish on the menu with its ideal drinking companion.

The space is divided into sections as varied as its menu. Have breakfast, lunch, tapas or dinner in the Tavern, a casual dining area filled with half-circle booths, small tables and low couches. Grab a stool and sample cheese at the cheese bar, or sip vino at the main bar. Formal diners will want to make reservations for the Cellar, an exclusive area serving dinner on white table cloths. On your way out, stop by the market to pick up a bottle of wine, wine accessories, gourmet foodstuffs and more.

If you don't know when to swirl or when to sniff, the wait staff is more than willing to share its knowledge with both wine novices and connoisseurs. If you're still uncomfortable, go back to school with Bin's wine education classes.
