49. Mike Moreno - Osito's Tap & Moreno's Liquors

Mike Moreno and Wilson Torres speak at Ositio’s Tap

Mike Moreno returns to the podcast to celebrate the launch of Osito’s Tap. Mike’s new Little Village bar is not just an innovative cocktail bar—preserving the past while celebrating modern flair—Osito’s is an emblem of transformation. We discuss the history of Little Village and how a lifted moratorium on bars in this Chicago neighborhood adds tremendous value to an already vibrant locale. Over a glass of Deadwood Tumbling Dice, We also chat about the history of bars in Chicago, and how small business owners and their customers share a mutual loyalty.
