About halfway through “Blade Runner,” Harrison Ford sits down on a couch with a glass of liquor and inserts a photograph into a machine that looks like the bastard child of a dishwasher and a used VCR. It’s called an “Esper.” Its purpose? To vividly zoom in on any given portion of a photo, revealing clues to those who seek them. If there’s a metaphor for the experience of watching “Blade Runner,” this scene...

The liquor license was delayed for six weeks because the licensing commission thought my store was a restaurant. I had to go through the whole process again.

But for now, Picca still calls his restaurant, which opened Oct. 27, a wine bar. In anticipation of a liquor license, he has been issuing coupons to customers for a free glass of wine to be poured at an unspecified date. Small Plates offers food categories such as the French “pour potager” and the Italian “pan bagna.” Picca said...
