Two blocks east of the Mag Mile and up a flight of steps is a new Streeterville piano bar that focuses on wines, martinis and mixed drinks. If you've got an affinity for the stars, you can satisfy it here. The long single room is decorated with publicity shots and platinum records, and the drink menu includes names like "Bob Dylan's Rusty Nail" and "Prince's Purple Orchard." Look for a mature crowd -- tourists from neighboring hotels or professionals from nearby condo buildings -- who come to mingle and listen to the loungy piano sounds five nights a week.
