It’s a good place for people to browse if they’ve never been to a Chinese market before. The selection is not huge, but for those who are not familiar with Asian groceries, they will find it very interesting.

Great tequila list with tasty Mexican snacks. I only like bars that also offer snacks or small bites. In Asia, you never just drink. You always have something the eat while you drink.

There are so many in this area that have grown their work into bigger businesses, but still operate on a small scale. I love that after all these years, I can still call and get them on the phone and talk directly with them. They are so committed to what they do- it’s not just a profession, it’s a lifestyle.

I’ve been fortunate to have had so many talented people work with me for many years contributing to and helping us achieve our goals. Anthony Secviar is one of the chefs that really stands out. I can’t wait to see what he will be doing in the next year or so as he settles in at his new restaurant. I think he will help make Addison a true dining destination.
