City Winery at the Chicago Riverwalk

This was not my first time at City Winery, but it is always such a perfect spot to hit on a beautiful day. The seating is plentiful, the view being right on the river is the great and best of all, DOG FRIENDLY! I know Maya is looking a little rough but trust me she was loving every minute of this! My mom and I ordered the Lakeshore Sunrise which was Ketel One vodka, mandarin juice, and their house made orange rosemary syrup and my dad the Perfect Manhattan which was Bulleit Rye whiskey, Cnia Mata sweet Spanish vermouth & Cnia Mata dry vermouth with Angostura bitters. All were so delicious. We also ordered their Artisanal Cheese board, a rotating selection of artisanal cheeses with accoutrements and fresh baguette. Our server was wonderful too, when they heard I was gluten free she brought us out gluten free crackers right away.
