The ribs were very tender and flavorful in this large, yet homey neighborhood restaurant. The decor was more traditional than trendy, but we did feel very comfortable.
It was not well ventilated. My wife said that she smelled smoke (tobacco). I didn't, but I did find it stuffy. So eating in again is not an option
Still, the food was very very good and I think we could carry out from there in the future, instead of eating in.
They had a great live jazz trio, too.

While out of range for me, I manage to get here occasionally.
Sunset Foods is an upscale local supermarket. They specialize in fresh meats and also ready to eat deli delicacies. Theuir fresh bakery also has some great iems, including my favorite, peanut butter brownies.
They also have a selection of more traditional supermarket items, with some upscale brands.
It's well worth a visit.

We were here tonight for dinner with my wife and adult son.
This is a busy, hip restaurant with nice service.We opened with sake, tea and sushi rolls (dragon for wife and son, spicy scallop for me), while my son had some pieces as well.
The sushi was fresh and extremely well prepared.
I then had the Chilean Sea Bass made in a lite citrus marinade and done perfectly, while wife and son had the beef and tempura combination, which also came with sushi rolls.
This was followed by coconut sorbet for my son.
For a solid north suburban restaurant, the price of around $50 each, with drinks and dessert was well worth the money. We will be coming back.

They do dine in and carry-out, American and Greek food. Their ribs are tasty and reasonably priced, for both full slab and half slab portions, as are their hamburgers. My wife likes their spinach pie and baclava. Each of us likes their gyros, which are fresh and with very large portions.
The prices are very reasonable and service is usally fast and helpful.

they do a super job here with hot dogs, char-broiled hamburgers, french fries and the like, all at reasonable prices. I particularly like their cheese fries.
While their location is great, they also do catering. My neighbors brough in Poochies for a graduation party and they grilled the food on premises.
I can recommend them highly.

I've bought bicycle equioment from them and had a bike tuneup done. They have a good selection at fair prices.
They are one of two local stores for this national web seller of bicycle equipment. The prices in the store are not always the same on the web site, but if you bring in an add, then they will honor the web price.
They do a good job and are a good choice for bicycles and gear in Northbrook.

This is a good basic health club. there's a nice selection of cardio machines and a smaller selection of weight machines and free weights. The cardio machines have tvs mounted which have cable. All you need to do is provide the headphones
The locker romes are ok, with a small sauna and a fairly large whirlpool. I'm assuming the women's locker room has the same stuff as the men's.
They have a walking track, which is nice, as is the basketball gym.
They have pretty long hours, too, 5am - 10pm during weekdays and 7am to 8 pm on weekends. They close at noon on holidays, though.
Better yet, the membership for residents is around $300 a year and not that much higher for non-residents.
I can recommend them as a good, cost-effective health club.

My wife, adult son and I went her for dinner this evening. They specialize in bison and beef, making food to order. They have no microwave and the freezer is used only for ice cream.
My wife and I had the bison ribeye, which each of us liked, although it was a bit too salty. My son had the prime rib, which he liked. The sides were great, including my favorite, the onion rings.
The service was fast, attentive and nice.
We will be going there again.

They publish monthly and are available in general musical instrument stores and major bookstores.
Each issue has lengthy on major Chicago jazz luminaries, concert listings, a how-to column by Saxophone Star Greg Fishman, plenty of CD reviews for local and national artists and lots, lots more.
It's a really great read. I look forward to the issue each month.

The proprietor is a woman, who apparently bought the business several years ago, owned by someon named Jack.
She does very good work, although a bit pricey.
She will go the extra mile for a customer. One day, my wife needed repairs on the straps on her back brace and she turned it around the same day, doing a really thorough repair on a complex garment.
I'll go to her for my tailoring needs now and forever.
