For myself, I'd like to get one of those spoons bartenders use to make Black & Tans and Half & Halfs (sic?).

For my Hallowe'en costume, I'd like to get a serving tray with straps to go over my shoulders, so I can walk around with the tray and have my hands free.

Any Chicago folks know of good bar supply shops that will probably have one or both of these things?

Try a restaurant supply store, there's more of them and they're likely to have bar supplies as well.

EDIT: Where in Chicago are you?

Steve I have one, they're easy to find.

I got mine in the burbs actually.. but they can be had around the city I'm sure. Ask for a 'guinness spoon'

I'll see if I can find mine and I'll loan it to you

I live in the Irving Park neighborhood, but I work in Wicker Park and I am going to the ATOT meet downtown tomorrow night.

Where do I ask for a Guinness spoon? That's the question ;)

Besides, I want one for my own, and I'm sure some friends of mine would love 'em.

Have you tried Sam's?

I bet they'd have it for sure.

Hmmm. I have a Costco membership. Maybe I should give them a look.

Ah! I'll have to look them up. But I want to get that serving tray too, for hors d'oeuvres.
