So, here's the tentative plan....
Where: Chicago, IL
When: Saturday, January 23rd, 6-ish
What: Yay GTG!
I figured we could all meet for dinner and then go from there! Since I'm not sure what everyone's interest/dining preferences are, I figured I'd do a poll. Whichever one gets the most votes wins! They're all Italian, since Chicago's pretty famous for it, but we can go somewhere else!
So far, I've heard something from Rach, Capri, Rho, Cengle, Cocero, Sarah0725, Shelly, and a few other knotties. I'll make reservations once I know about how many people (and also FIs) will be there!
Here are the options:
Rosebud on Rush: Most entrees in the $10-15 range. Located in the ritzy, glamorous going-out area of the city. This place used to be a front for the mob!
http://rosebudrestaurants.com/rest3.php?s=menuPortillo's: Classic, cheap ($3-9) Chicago food, ranging from hot dogs to amazing pasta. Casual, defintely familiy-friendly.
http://www.portillos.com/Giordano's: Chicago's most famous (and IMO best) pizza.
