I had never heard of Wild Forks until I went there on impulse last weekend.

It's a brilliant concept, in my opinion. Stock an incredible selection of protein all flash-frozen for maximum quality. You name it, they have it from game to true Wagyu beef to Iberico pork.

I walked out with a picanha roast -- a cut I hadn't seen at any of my other Lake County preferred stores.

I am very much looking forward to smoking it this weekend and hope Wild Forks succeeds.

Staying on your topic -- I am sad to see Dom's fail. He was going to expand to Vernon Hills, and I was looking forward to his store. I hate how Kroger's has gutted Mariano's.

Call me bougie...but my favorite store these days is Fresh Market for similar reasons.
