Soccer & Style Event at ROOF on theWit
The ROOF Runway Series at ROOF on theWit (201 North State Street) has been great this year, but I’m sad to say it’s coming to a close. While this latest event may be the last of the year, it’s good to see that the series is going out with a bang. On Thursday, September 19, […]

Win Tickets To See Margaret Cho at Kit Kat Lounge and Supper Club
These days brunch may be the most popular meal in America. It seems as if a restaurant is now judged by how well they do brunch. If you look on social media on an average weekend, mostly everyone is talking about where they’re doing brunch. Kit Kat Lounge and Supper Club (3700 North Halsted) does […]
Chicago Bears Start The NFL Season Off Right
The weekend is always better during the NFL season. Now that the inaugural week is done, it’s very clear that we will be having an interesting season. Peyton Manning threw for a record-tying seven touchdowns, Chip Kelly’s offense worked for the Eagles, RG III seemed a little off the first half but bounced back later […]

TWO Chicago To Host UN86’D Benefit
I watch a certain cartoon that features two best friends and one of their funny exchanges, and it’s basically their philosophy, is “homies helping homies.” Sure its slang but the general principle is that they care about each other’s well-being and want to all they can to help one another out. That same philosophy is […]

Found (1631 Chicago Ave in Evanston) has thought up a new monthly craft dinner series concept. To show their unique partnerships with local farmers, artisans and the like, they are introducing, Moveable Feast. Don’t worry, it’s not a book club to discuss Hemingway’s novel, it’s all about food. Starting next month (October 8th to be […]
Get Lucky at Untitled Chicago’s Casino Night
Untitled Chicago has quickly become a sort of fan favorite for diners wanting a fun environment while dining. The speakeasy-style restaurant and bar is always coming up with ways to keep patrons entertained. The latest idea is a nod to the time of the Rat Pack and all the glamour and enchantment of that era.

Everyone’s Invited To The Tortoise Club
When I found out I would be dining at the Tortoise Club (350 North State) I had to look it up because it’s a fairly new restaurant, it will be a year old come November, and I didn’t know much about it. I checked out the website and liked the menu, but one thing stuck […]
