Fresh: A Family Affair
This olive oil is a family affair.
Mary Jo and Themis Vlahos, owners of Winnetka’s Caffe Buon Giorno, import olive oil from Themis’ hometown in Greece—Lalas, a village 2,000 feet above ancient Olympia.
The pure, light green olive oil, made from hand-picked olives from the Vlahos’ orchard, gets rave reviews from local gourmands.
Cost is $30 per one-liter bottle (includes tax), and you can earn $3 off your olive oil purchase by bringing back the empty bottle.
