Who knew that a Whole Foods on Kiddler Street would turn into a stealth Asian pantry goldmine?…read more I usually walk in into pricier grocery stores with a plan: meat, bread, home. But today, that plan was deliciously derailed. I had every intention of skipping the produce but ended up frozen in my tracks. There it was. Fresh coconut chunks. Whole tamarind pods, not paste but the real deal. Aloe. Yucca. Chinese melons. And even red-flesh dragon fruit. The kind that makes your smoothie look like it came from a fairy tale. Normally, I plan a separate pilgrimage to Jongboo, H Mart, or Seoul Market for these ingredients. Reviews for those are coming, I promise. But this was unexpected magic in a mainstream aisle. I have spent a lot of time in Asia for work and completely fell in love with the food. My husband and kids are on board, so our kitchen is a happy rotation of Korean BBQ, Japanese curry, Singapore noodles, and hot pot. And this Whole Foods just made that rotation easier. Bonus points for three kinds of figs and gorgeous flowers, both on sale. This location may say Whole Foods on the outside, but if you look close enough, it quietly says Asian market crossover on the inside. And for that, I am hooked.

Whole Foods prices with rock-bottom service. This location is a mess…read more Every visit comes with the same experience: no greeting, no courtesy, just attitude and employees who look annoyed that customers exist. It's not one bad apple it's the entire store, consistently. Quality has dropped since the Amazon takeover, prices are busted, and even basic things like bagging groceries are done carelessly. This past visit everything was crammed into one bag until it ripped on my way to the car. For "premium" prices, that's messed up. The vibe is miserable. Staff seems avoidant, unhappy and takes it out on shoppers. This store used to feel welcoming...now it feels hostile. Plenty of better places to spend your money.

I'm always on the lookout for spots that feel authentic and Prime Beef in Mundelein absolutely…read moredelivers that old-school butcher shop experience you don't come across often anymore. We stopped in today just to check it out, and it turned into one of those unexpectedly great local experiences. It's always a pleasure meeting other Greeks, and Petros, the owner, was incredibly welcoming; honestly felt more like catching up with family. The atmosphere is warm and unpretentious, and the service is genuinely personal. Their meat is of the highest quality I've had since Greece. If you happen to stop in on the weekend, definitely check out their hot specials. Overall, Prime Beef is one of those neighborhood gems that reminds you why local butcher shops still matter. High-quality product, great people, and a welcoming, community feel that's hard to find.

What a great shop in downtown Libertyville!…read more I wanted to support a local business for my nephews birthday and at the top of his list was truffle oil.

Vibes were instantly 10/10. We came looking for a birthday cake for my mom and they delivered. So many cute options and fun flavors. We agreed that the rainbow cake was perfect size and just looked like happiness. Then we stopped by the floral section and let's just say... we went in for one thing and walked out with armfuls. The hot dog balloon holding a rainbow cake? Had to have it to match the Birthday Cake! Sunflowers for $7? Say less. Roses were $8 for a dozen! It was technically my mom's birthday... but we all left with flowers. Because ladies -- remember: if he wanted to, he would. All in all it was a fun little grocery trip and great for all your birthday needs

ALDI is one of my favorite stores for getting snacks, meals, certain groceries etc. I have been to…read morethis location multiple times because I have liked what I have purchased and usually go back for more. I like their variety and pricing. Both are on point for me. Quality can vary from item to item sometimes and isn't always top of the quality as the big name grocery chains but it is worth the price you pay and not bad by any means. I have liked the spicy Pork Rinds Chicharrones, Banana Nut bread, Garlic bread, spicy Hummus, certain sausages, skirt steak, certain frozen pizzas, certain beers among other things that I have bought here. Service was good the times I have been here. If you haven't been to this ALDI then check them out for good, reasonably priced items.

Bang for your buck. 9.99 for Maine lobsters …read more Wow I just came back and in conversation mentioned I purchased five Maine lobsters, and was surprised how little meat there was, although it was 9.99 for 18 oz. He mentioned they have a double money back guarantee. So I can come back and try again. Just do t have room in freezer at the moment so I'll come back and stick with the tails. Aldi is a no frills grocer that is short on staff , but I am positive they make up in different ways. Wow unbelievable . They are related to Trader Joe's . Now to find a good way to prepare theses beautiful tails.

This CSA has a great variety of vegetables and fruits. They partner with other organic farms or local orchards to deliver their customers more variety. They even have eggs, meat, dairy, honey and jams. I would pick up my shares at the Grayslake farm every Thursdays and that was always a time I looked forward to. Always friendly staff, helpful weekly emails that would tell you what was in your share and recipes to use them. I had to move out of state a few months ago and this CSA is one of the thing I miss the most.
