I was at Reza's for a luncheon and we enjoyed the lunch buffet. It was certainly a large buffet with many options.
The fresh pita bread and hummus was delicious. Their salads were fresh and the farfel was wonderful. In fact, I enjoyed those items so much I didn't get to all of the other meat and vegetable options. I suppose I'll have to return. We were there at noon for the buffet and in my opinion it was too early for me to be eating meats and fish, but the lighter items, as I stated, the hummus, bread and salad was delicious.
Parking in Andersonville can be a challenge but there are plenty of cute stores to shop and view while you are on Clark Street.

I stop at Starbucks approximately twice a month. I am by no means an every day Starbucks visitor but on the occasion, I like to treat myself to one of their drinks.
I stop in this Starbucks around 10am one morning this week and I found another customer placing a large order of gift cards, mugs, bags of coffee, etc. I was in no rush so I let her complete her order even though she offered for me to jump ahead.
I proceed to wait just a few moments and then I order a chi tea latte. I sit down as I wait for my beverage to be ready. Quite some time passes, a wave of people come in and get there coffee and leave. They see me sitting, reading the newspaper. The barista asked what did I order. I reiterate my order and she apologizes. She prepares my coffee and then give me a coupon for a free beverage. I was grateful for her customer service skills and recognition of that fact that I was forgotten!

I dined at Katsu last night with a friend and we commented upon the completion of our meal that we look forward to returning to Katsu!
The service and hostess / host were so kind and gracious. The sushi was the epitome of fresh and delicious. They had a very nice meal of entrées and sushi to choose from and I do plan to return because there are other items on the menu I'd like to try. I found their yellowtail sushi to be outstanding. The miso soup was lovely and the plum wine that I had truly complimented the meal well.
My friend and I were there after playing golf just a few blocks away at Robert A Black, what a grand evening, nine holes of golf followed by sushi at Katsu.

My favorite dish at Penny's is their spicy red pepper noodles. The first time I ever had it I had it with tofu and it was delicious. I think you can't really make a bad decision here as all of their dishes are great. Cheap, good and reliable. Had a long day? Looking for comfort food? Penny's, any of their locations will fit the bill.

I've had a drivers license for 10 years and I experienced my first flat tire this week! I had the spare but on and then brought my car to Just Tires. I did end up needing a new tire and I was pleased with the efficiency and promptness my car was attended to. I had my car back within the hour and I thought but manager I spoke with Jesus and Jason were kind and professional.

I went here for lunch with a friend and we enjoyed great sandwich and muffin. The staff was friendly and the store was extremely clean and well put together. I would much rather patronize a smaller, mom and pop business and this I found to be one of them. Located just west of Diversey and Sheridan, Red Hen Bread is a great addition to the area.

If you are hungry and willing to try new things, you must try Korean Food at Cho Sun Ok. There is a wonderful menu of items to choose from and most of the cooking is done right at your table.
I really enjoy their steamed pot stickers are well as their soups. In addition, if you go there with others, you can certainly order a few dishes and share all the food that is prepared for you.
I've been to Cho Sun Ok twice and I must admit both experiences were outstanding. Bring your own wine and be prepared to wait for a table.

If you have a hockey fan in your life, specifically a Chicago Blackhawks fan, you can complete all of your shopping for this fan at Hawk Quarters. From hats to tshirts to mugs, the choices are endless of Chicago Blackhawk items you can find at Hawk Quarters. I found a mousepad there that was adored by my favorite Chicago Blackhawks fan. There is always a game on to watch when you enter the store and their staff is helpful.
If only the Chicago Blackhawks could excel on the ice....

I recently had pants hemmed at Nuri's and I was extremely happy with the results. The kind couple that runs Nuri's are attentive and accommodating. Whether you need dry cleaning or tailing services, I feel that Nuri's is a local shop that provides terrific service.
Located on Lincoln Ave, just south of Berteau, Nuri's is great choice for all of us who regularly drop off an arm load of clothes to be dry cleaned each week.

I recently went to La Creperie with friends and we enjoyed a wonderful evening. This quaint restaurant offers visitors a glance of traditional French Crepes.
I started with the French Onion Soup and it was delicious. I honestly am not a huge soup eater, but this French Onion Soup was divine. Each of us had a different crepe entrée and they were all prepared well, with fresh ingredients and full of flavor. Their wine list included a nice selection, one can easily find a wine to accompany their crepe dinner of choice.
Finally, for dessert, a crepe with nutella, peanut butter and bananas was thoroughly enjoyed and shared among the three of us. I would certainly certain for a crepe dessert again.
The service was pleasant and accommodating. As we were leaving there was live entertainment and it was wonderful to hear the songs being sung in the beautiful French language.
