This place used to be called the Greasebox under different ownership and was never very popular. Now they've turned this little urban island into a hot spot with great food and beer. We meet up with other parents and their children for happy hour quite often.

The only place I'm going to mention in the Telegraph Avenue gourmet ghetto. Come here for the best fried chicken sandwich around. If the line is long, don't worry, it moves fast.

This corner store won the best store in the country. Two brothers own and operate it. It seems to have whatever I need. And the beer selection is fantastic.
