VAPIANO!

Uptown Charlotte welcomes a new and exclusive international franchise, Vapiano! Vapiano is located on the ground floor of the South Tryon Square building. With over 30 open locations in 8 different countries; Hungary, Poland, Sweden, Dubai-United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, England, and the United States! You know my friends and I had to check it out. It was great, but I'll tell you about that later. 




Vapiano was founded in Germany in 2002. To start things off, you will be given a barcoded card that will serve as your in-house credit card. You are then invited to visit the various stations and order whatever you like. The chef or bartender takes your trusty card and swipes the order onto your card. Their Italian-cuisine inspired menu includes a myriad of homemade pizzas and pastas, as well as an extensive salad bar. They also offer a great appetizers and snacks. I would be remissed not to mention the array of original cocktails and mixed drinks. We all took turns trying the various options (no more than two each, drink responsibly) but they were pretty amazing. They were somewhat peculiar flavors but good nonetheless. 


The night was really great, especially once we realized that we could also enjoy the sounds and people of the street on the restaurant's open patio. We sat outside, just a few feet away from our mixologist for the night! It was a great time. We tried our best to make our way around the 10,000 square ft. area. At the end of the night, we proceded to the cash register where we covered the bill. I ended up spending around $25.00 for the entire night. Not to shabby if I should say so myself. If I were you I'd check it out.
