What a great lil spot! Some friends brought me here for one of their Thursday evening wine…read moretastings, and I was blown away by how unique, delicious and reasonably priced they all were. I remember trying a summery white wine I liked, and have since gotten a great juicy red bottle. While wine is their main thang, they also have a nice looking selection of gin, whiskey, bourbon and more. They have a bunch of Italian dry good items, as well as charcuterie items like gourmet crackers and local chocolates... plus there's a freezer full of Jeni's ice cream. I haven't had a chance to try their cheeses yet, but will definitely come back for that! Overall love the product offering and the knowledgeable staff, so will be picking up wine from here from now on.

Met up with a few friends for dinner. We made a 6pm reservation. I called ahead and they confirmed…read morethey could make GF options. Their menu doesn't have anything marked but the server was very knowledgeable. He went through the entire menu and indicated what could be made GF. They do not have GF pasta or bread but they do have a few options for GF crackers. We ordered the crunch party, cheese board with GF crackers, brussels sprouts, and rosemary potato rosti to share. The server made sure to modify everything to be GF and had the potatoes cooked in a separate pan to avoid cross contamination. We also had the GF almond cake. When the staff brought the food, they even acknowledged it was GF before serving. The food and service were fantastic! Really appreciate how knowledgeable and accommodating the staff was. Highly recommend!

Who knew that this neighborhood wine bar would have the best cheese curds in Chicago? I guess it…read moreactually makes sense since they are known for their artisanal cheeses - but wow, these really blew me away! The rest of their cheeses are also fab, the cheese board my group got was phenomenal and it was clear that it was thoughtfully curated together for us. I will say the wine is pricier than not (& the wine in the fridge has a $20 corkage fee), but it's all great quality - worth it if you're looking for a unique wine experience in my opinion. It's small but cute inside, matching the chill vibe of the west side of Chicago. Our server was super friendly and added to the experience with his expertise and great vibes! Check this spot out if you have any sort of wine / cheese passions for sure

Cheese, marvelous cheese!…read more Are you that person with at least five varieties of cheese in your fridge, just in case? Well, I can straight up de-mystify the Stamper Cheese agenda. They are cheese pushers. Like so many artisanal fromage purveyors, their wares suck you in, and you just crave more. Must have fresh mozzarella cheese balls, that is my personal mantra. Twice a week, at either the Federal/Daley/ or Willis Tower Farmers Market, I shuffle up to their booth to score my fix, satiating the gnawing jones of a cheese fiend. The days in between, I try to make it last, stretch it out. Mostly, the fresh mozzarella balls will do. Occasionally, I might venture into a goat cheese gouda, apricot brie, or a nettle infused variety. You know what nettles are? Yeah. They STING you. And apparently, they're good for you too. Only Stamper Cheese would have the cojones to use stinging nettles in their cheese. Get some. It's good. It's a hard cheese variety, and quite tasty. No store front, but they have a Printer's Row Cheese Drop Off. Check their website, Facebook, or better yet, email them for details, since the outdoor Farmers Market season is now over. The winter is that much bleaker without you, Stamper Cheese.

The cheese is good but I wish that they would label the cheeses at the farmers market. I asked what…read morethey were and was given a vague description of these are cheddars, these are goudas, etc. Just look on their website and ask if they have whatever specific flavors that you want. I like the dill garlic curds, string cheese, and dill jack. The mozzarella is just ok.

They came to us, and our office building has a beautiful ,exclusive rooftop. It was the perfect backdrop on an absolutely wonderful afternoon. All of the materials were available, not just the cheese and meats and all that. But also knives, cutting boards, etc. The owner was our instructor and she was the sweetest. Each person in the group got their own kit and they gave us advice on how to arrange things based on flavors and type of item, encouraged our designs and it was really fun. The amount of food we got was insane. I would totally recommend Cheers to Cheese for team gatherings, bachelorette parties, all that stuff. I mean.. Just look at the photos (heart eyes).

Order was delivered on Valentine's Day in the morning to Oak Brook. I asked for an all vegetarian cheese board. This one came with four cheeses and extra accoutrements to make up for the lack of meat. Looks beautiful and customer service is very response. If you ever need a fun cheese board delivered, this is the way to do it. Great gift! The only negative part is that I'm not there to eat it.

The breast is perfectly crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. The variety of meats are so good. The hot giardiniera adds the perfect spice and oil but isn't so oily that the sandwich is dripping from the oil of it. The B. Franklin: my personal favorite. the turkey and cheese are so freaking tummy. my goodness. I don't really love deli turkey but the turkey here is just perfection. the sourdough bread that is used holds all the ingredients well that it doesn't get soggy. Beet Streets: our vegan friends loved this sandwich and loved how hearty it was! The actual shop is small but still has seating to eat lunch or a snack. It's a great space to grab some cheese, wines, and deli meat to go. The service is always great. Deff top 5 sandwich shops in Chicago!

Overall, I did not enjoy this strange turn from Italian food I am used to. I am not sure if this…read moreplace is a fusion restaurant with another culture because the food that I was expecting to be Italian was not giving Italy. Typical bruschetta you see has tomato, which was what I was hoping for when I ordered it, but there were no tomatoes at all. Instead, there were green peas, and a whole lot of cheeses on top consisting of whipped ricotta cheese. The taste made me regret getting the bruschetta, which I usually love. And the gnocchi dish... don't even get me started. The texture made me think I was eating raw dough from my baking sessions. It looked promising when the dish first came out, but the mozzarella cheese on top was chewier than the gnocchi itself. The gnocchi would just become a strange mash when poked with by my fork. The gnocchi was overcooked which resulted in a mushy paste when it should have been pillowy and have a slight resistance when bitten into. Maybe their other foods may have been good, but the combo I got was not filling. I barely touched the gnocchi.

Eataly is a cool spot. I got to Chicago super early before my hotel was ready, so I hopped on Yelp…read moreto look for a cafe. This was close to my hotel, and I've obviously heard about it as a tourist destination, so I was excited to go. The cafe space itself was great to get work done and grab a coffee. Seating was ample and over all clean. They serve Lavazza coffee which is great, and definitely elevates the experience. This counter/ cafe area low key reminds me of a mini food hall, and I really loved the amount of options that were offered. They have pizza, a bakery, gelato, pasta, and packed/ ready to go options. Since I had time, I decided to stay parked and grabbed a slice of pizza. It's Roman style, and you can tell the ingredients are fresh. It wasn't my favorite but it wasn't bad! It was hard to decide which one to get, but I got prosciutto. It is a bit pricy, but that's downtown Chicago. I got a chance to look around at the market area and the store is really cool. They have everything you need for the kitchen. The staff was super awesome too, I thought I lost my wallet and they were very helpful. I'd go back and try something else next time!
