A secret for cheese lovers in Chicago. We are not into advertising businesses on here but if there is someone that offers something special we like to share it.
A dear friend of mine, Swiss decent, mentioned to me that there is a store that has amazing Swiss and French cheese and their business is worth sharing with the Swiss Community of Chicago. Knowing him, they might also have some good wine on the shelf. He does understand that a good cheese tastes only right accompanied with a good wine.
Augusta Food & Wine 2312 West Leland Ave Chicago. When you stop by, tell them a crazy swiss guy shared the secret.
Enjoy.

SWISS STORIES - Horst Zemp, born in the small farm town of Triengen, Luzern, moved to Zürich after completing his mechanical engineer apprenticeship, and then worked his way through the ranks by day and studied by night. His hard work led to a job offer from an American company, and in 1996, he moved to the Chicago suburbs, where he has resided ever since.
What convinced him about Chicago all those years ago? Zemp shares, “It was a frigid winter morning with blue sky and snow-covered fields and trees; it was magical.”
“In my book, Chicago is the Greatest City in the US. It provides everything at a very high-quality—culture, food, architecture, music; you name it, Chicago has the best of it. Chicago is also clean and offers beautiful beaches and lake activities,” Zemp adds.
Chicago also has an established Swiss community, one part of which is the Swiss Club of Chicago. To stay better connected, Zemp joined the Swiss Club and took over the presidency of the Club in 2016. He writes, “It has become an essential part of my life to remain connected with Switzerland and provide opportunities for Swiss living abroad to maintain some of the Swiss Heritage.”
Horst and his wife Tammi reside in the Chicago suburbs and have a son who recently graduated high school (class of 2020). #SwissStories #SwissintheMidwest
