"The fall 2022 debut of After, an opulent cocktail bar from two-Michelin-starred Ever’s chef Curtis Duffy and sommelier and sommelier Michael Muser, signaled that Chicago’s ambitious bar culture had well and truly returned after years of pandemic obstacles. The sleek, futuristic establishment provides a less-pricy alternative to the exclusivity of Ever, complete with both classic and creative drinks using top-notch spirits." - Ashok Selvam, Naomi Waxman
