Nestled in the woods along Highway B is Forest Lake Country Store in Land O’ Lakes. The unassuming store located on a curve in the road sneaks up and surprises visitors, but they are even more surprised by the unique shopping selection and dining experience found inside. The noticeable wine selection hosts more than 150 boutique labels such as Chateau Ste. Michelle, Stag’s Leap Wine Cellar, Rombauer, Caymus, Decoy and more. Obscure labels can be found by those who want to try something new. Bottles can be brought to the table, corked and served with crystal glassware. More than 180 craft beers are offered in the beer selection. Sprecher, Leinenkugel’s, Ommengang, Southern Tier, Lakeside and Bell’s Brewing, Lagunita’s and other craft brewers are available. Guests may have a beer with their meal or mix a six-pack to take home for a private tasting party. The shelves are filled with many other unique and

tasty treats. Forty artisan cheeses from Carr Valley, Sartori, Widmers and more are carried. Shoppers will find Amish jams, Wisconsin salsas and gourmet popcorn. One variety of gourmet popcorn is baby white rice popcorn, a hullless popcorn that is soft, fluffy and won’t get stuck in your teeth. Visitors also will enjoy the comfortable dining experience Forest Lake offers. “The quaint dining area reminds you of sitting in your best friend’s kitchen. Neither too big nor too small, it’s the perfect size

for casual dining,” said owner Mark Gostisha. A sense of camaraderie is seen in the dining room, with guests talking among themselves or chatting from table to table. The country store’s menu is casual. Breakfast features large fluffy omelets, French toast with real Wisconsin maple syrup and eggs served with toast. Lunch and dinner boast of special items such as handcrafted panini sandwiches and signature salads. A popular evening attraction is Kris’ handmade pizza. The dough is made
from scratch and is not rolled until an order is placed. The sauce is created on-site and the toppings are piled high on each pie. Customers frequently say the pizza is the best they have tasted north of Chicago, according to Gostisha. For those who want to keep in touch, a general-interest, monthly newsletter is offered. New products are introduced and store events and Vilas County events are announced. A wine-only newsletter To COUNTRY, Pg. 21
