Bormioli Rocco Selecta 7-Piece Whisky Decanter

Posted by Chuck Nelson On June - 30 - 2009

Any self-respecting gentlemen keeps his whisky in a decanter (whisky for scottish, whiskey for american). It helps to release the aromas and delicacies of finer whisky. It also looks great in the corner of your office on top of your home bar. At this price point, there’s no reason to toss your MaCallan bottle aside and opt for this beautfully decorated decanter set.

Whisky Decanter

Heavy and sturdy, this glass set holds it’s own against deceptively expensive $1,000 decanters. Toss the matching glasses though and replace them with a brandy snifter, sip it at room temperature and revel in the joy of charred barrel aging.

Zeke’s Roadhouse

Zeke’s is probably one of my favorite things about Lincoln Road, besides the beautiful South American girls. It’s a beer garden, which mean that it’s chock full crazy imports and micro brews. At $3-$4 a beer, get adventurous, lose the Corona and the Heineken. Try a Spanish Hamburg or a chocolate beer. Seriously, with over 300 beers from around the world, this is the type of place beer aficionados dream about.

Get there early and snag a table outside, because it gets packed early. And I mean PACKED, seriously this place is really popular with the locals and with tourists. Another bummer is it’s cash only policy, which puts a dent in the plans of people like me, who like to imagine their drinking binges as good credit accumulating. It’s right by Pizza Rustica, so grab a slice, buy a beer, and people watch the hell out of Lincoln road.

Chimay Blue

Chimay Blue is probably one of the better parts of going to an over-priced lounge filled with downtown hipsters and euro-trash. It’s probably one of the best beers in existence and, get this, it’s made by monks. Belgian Trappist monks to be exact, and these God-fearing, beatific brewsters know exactly what they are doing. Chimay Blue, my personal favorite out of all the Chimay products, is one hell of beer. It has a copper-brown color and a creamy head, with various notes of peppery and fruity flavors. At 9% abv, this is not a beer for chugging, or even drinking out of the bottle. You gotta pour this baby into a gourmet glass and then soak in the ambiance of this glorious ale. Great for dinner parties or for being the classiest guy at the bar.

If you’re looking for some burgers that’ll put some hair on your chest (and honestly who isn’t?) then look no further than these Kansas City Steak Company Cheddar and Bacon Burgers. Real men don’t bother with putting toppings on top of our food, we find a way to stuff it inside, like turkey filled with stuffing, and lobster stuffed with tacos.

These burgers have a real smokey flavoring, and the cheddar and bacon flavor is pleasantly surprising without being overbearing. Individually wrapped, they’re great for making just one at home or firing them all up at your next BBQ.
