We love our bartenders, especially when they are uber-talented and have a following across the city. It's no surprise then that mixologist Daniel De Oliveira knew exactly what we wanted when we came up to his Frangelico booth at Macy's/Meals on Wheels Celebrity Chef Ball. When he's not mixing drinks for charity, he can be found amongst other talents at Mercadito in River North (and you will find us at the end of his bar). Meet Daniel De O!
