Soft opening today. Large, well-stocked, although not as large as the South Loop store. Excellent prices on many things, although I don't expect that to last once they become established. I passed on a few of the $5,000 bottles in the rare and collectible section.

I had one lunch at 1415 Fullerton Szechuan about a year ago. I left annoyed, unsatisfied and would have been happier with a fish sandwich from McD's.Octarine wrote:Well thanks for saving me the trip; I was thinking of trying it tonight.

Well, 51 years . . . someone must have stopped in.
