It is also one of the most affordable of the North Shore suburbs. What is most appealing to residents is that 20% of the village has been devoted to open spaces.

I really, really do not like member cards for more than one reason.  One of the reasons is that my wallet is getting bigger and bigger and my key chain could be heavier and heavier. I could be like a maintenance guy with a chain with a hundred little plastic member cards on it. Few years ago I was shopping at one of the big pet stores and I had to make a card. I went to that same looking store ... oops it was a competitor. I had to sign up for another card, because the lady at the register was not allowed to use her card. Finally I found the pet store with great prices with no member or discount cards. I was so happy! Now I can get rid of those two other cards that are driving me crazy. Pet Supplies on Harlem and Dempster in Morton Grove was the store in this example. Recently they deci...

Sri Siam is one of my favorite local restaurants.  I am not afraid to try new restaurants, but for good Thai food I always go back to Sri Siam. The average meal price is $7.25.  They offer a choice of a free appetizer when you spend more than $15.  Here are couple of comments from Yelp. "My favorite Thai meal is Pad See Ewe and Sri Siam's dish is terrific. Other places offer lifeless noodles or salty sauce." "Bottom line, This restaurant deserves a 5-star rating and I will definitely be visiting this restaurant anytime I am in Chicago." Reviews on Google  and Yelp are giving 5 stars to Sri Siam of Morton Grove.   View Larger Map Visit their website for the full menu. Sri Siam Thai Restaurant Homes By Haris
