Wine-pairing dinner at Jara



Since this will be the first activity of the weekend, we suggest you take it slowly by enjoying a meal at Jara. What’s special about this place is that it offers dinner paired with wine. Although not ideal for kids, this place will be the perfect place for couples looking to spend some quality time with each other and relax a bit. The wine here is authentic and amazingly flavorful!
