the best of the best. period.

these are places from all walks that i love to frequent in chicago. these are my best of the best.

Liar's Club -

1665 W. Fullerton Ave. - Chicago (Lincoln Park)
Avec -

615 W. Randolph St. - Chicago (West Loop)
Eno -

505 N. Michigan Ave. - Chicago (River North)

i'm sure it helps that i work right next door to eno and know most of the staff very well. no matter, 'cause it's a great place with a rotating wine list and sommeliers who know their stuff.

Rainbo Club -

1150 N. Damen Ave. - Chicago (East Village / Ukrainian Village)

again, now that we've gone smoke-free, i could sit in rainbo for hours for people watching and meeting.

The Playground Improv Theater -

3209 N. Halsted St. - Chicago

i perform here, but i would attend shows even if i didn't. tickets are cheap, it's byob, and the member ensembles are all funny as hell.

Izumi Sushi -

731 W. Randolph St. - Chicago (West Town)

i pray this place never goes out of business. the sushi is great, it's a trendy little spot, and it's byob. i have never seen it crowded, however. hoping people catch on.

A cool art-house theater with an organ. Takes you back in time.

Hideout -

though it's hard to ever get a cab home, i love chillin' at the hideout. devil in a woodpile is a great place to start, so check the listings.
