Andfora is a wine shop located in downtown Oak Park that specializes in Italian wines from all over…read morethe world. If you're a sweet wine drinker, like myself this might not be the wine shop for you. I was still able to enjoy the experience to Sip, Savor and Share the rich taste of some fine wines. They have an outside patio to sit out in the front on those beautiful summer days. Where you can sit under the umbrella, relax and sip on a crispy glass of wine. There is a monthly wine class for those who want to know more about Italian wines. It's nice to have a wine shop in the neighborhood that serves unique and different selections of wines. The service for me was nice. I was able to get knowledge and history on each wine. The experience felt like an imaginary trip to France or Italy.

So I have never gone in despite waking past at least once a week. Yesterday, someone invited me for a beer at Poor Phil's, which was closed at the time, so they changed the location to The Beer Shop, not realizing my dog issue. I was feeling brave, so I went in! Thankfully, no allergic reaction. There was only one small dog there while I was there, about 30 minutes, and the dog only walked by once, while leashed. A few tables with kids playing board games. A few folks at the bar. I really dug the vibe, and if it was pet-free, I'd totally come here more often! The bartender was super duper friendly, really cool. I got a cider on tap, and there were non-alcohol options as well, even saw a canned Diet Coke- my favorite!! I realize I'm not their ideal customer, with my dog challenges. If you have a dog, this looks to be the perfect spot for you! I wish I could visit again, but I think I'll pass as dogs barking indoors make me startle, cry, and flee. But I had a good experience yesterday.

My buddy brought me a bottle of Yamasaki 12 yr old single malt which I drank sparingly @ the time the bottle retailed for $50/bottle. When the bottle was running low I went in w/the intent of buying another bottle. By then the price had jumped to $85.00. Now I can't even find this anymore except online w/exorbitant prices. This use to be available but the 25 yr old Yamasaki was named the No 1 single malt in the world selling for 1,000,000 yen (at the time roughly $9,600). Ever since the demand for Yamasaki products has been off the charts (supply & demand)

Holidays with the family are a bit like choose your own adventure novels…read more Take Path A - the sober route - and you don't have alcohol to help soften grandchild requests, barbs, etc.; the upside is you know you can make a clean getaway. Take Path B - the booze train - and anesthetize yourself against the aforementioned comments, but risk being too sloshed to leave at the end of the night. Even if you choose all the right options, there's no telling if a family get-together will end pleasantly or in a hide the knives scenario. This year erred toward a hide the knives kind of night, by the time I left I was in need of a drink (or three). After a failed booze run to TJ's, I headed for home racking my brain for a liquor store that might be open on Christmas. Fortunately, like a beacon, the lights of USA Beverage called out to me. The store isn't huge, but it has a decent selection of beer. You'll find a nice array of domestics in bottles, cans, sixers and cases. If you're on the hunt for craft beer or imports, you'll probably be disappointed; the selection was mostly mainstream brands like Sierra Nevada, Goose Island and Guinness. I was hoping to pick up some Strongbow, but didn't see it or any hard ciders. The one thing I didn't like was that there weren't prices next to many of the items. This place is convenient, but when I'm not on the hunt for emergency booze, I'd probably head over to Famous. They have a much more robust selection.

Ever since my friend introduced us to craft beer, we have been traveling into the city or Binny's…read moreto get our beer. After seeing the Abita sign in their window, we decided to stop in. Although the selection is not as huge as Binny's, it's still a great place to try something different or pick up an old favorite (as long as they have it) Make sure you find out their delivery days because if a beer is a favorite it will go quickly. We have been lucky to luck out and find some good finds here. One being Bourbon County and various Rogue stouts. We also love talking to Pat who works the front counter in the evenings (well, the evenings we've been there at least) Definitely check this place out to see what they have. You never know what you'll find, and that's the fun part.
