Screw shopping. I love EAV as a restaurant destination!! 
Yeah, easy for you to say. You're never actually HERE to do any shopping.
All the boutique owner ladies know me well! Not my fault we have a Target a mile away and peeps love target! Mnyaaah!
You know what I'd really shop at? If all of the crafties in EAV started squatting in the old Antiques building and selling their wares! I would have super cute Lorigami sweaters, (more) awesome pot holders, quilts, aprons, plates and other quirky items from Mr Man, all my friends' babies' gifts from Atank, jewelry, beer, etc. That type of shopping would be singularly and wonderfully EAV! THAT would be pre or post dinner stroll worthy!
Until then, keep eating, Folks!!
