Due to unforeseen circumstances, we will be postponing the August Friends & Family Fun & Skate to Friday August 13th. That gives you extra time to polish up your helmet and find a date! And by "date" I mean, your kids, husbands, friends, your kids…

We've been going to Poor Phil's for years. In fact, I worked there for a summer during college. Of course their burgers are great, and our kids like the chicken tenders on the appetizer menu. Their jambalaya is good too. And we love the popcorn you…

I guess I'm not saying anything new, but I agree that the beer selection is great but I am not crazy about the food. In fact, I try to stay clear of it just because the last few times it has been greasy-even for bar food- and disappointing. And, it'…

My friends and I have an annual tradition of breakfast outdoors there a few times during the summer. I love the "snowflakes" and the other eggs Benedick variations. The potatoes are good as a side too, and good coffee.

I saw this one, too, earlier on groupon, but I didn't sign up because we've always been able to just go and look around UT, for free. And we've gone to author readings there for free...just me? Have things changed? I hadn't even realized you needed…

I enjoyed Smoque more than Fat Willy's. Granted, I've only been to each place once and anyone can have an off evening but I found Fat Willy's tips dry & overly smokey. In a pinch I'll hit Famous Dave's but I find them overly smokey & a lil' salty. S…

As a resident of Berwyn I don't feel "snubbed" by the OPRF designation, but I spend my days working in Oak Park and I've spent most of the past 13 years living in the two villages--until my husband and I decided to buy a house we could afford :) I t…

We use the central AC 24 hours a day, but don't cool it as much during the day when it's just us. We need to keep the house fairly cool for the baby (and I don't mean my husband). It hasn't been a safe temperature for a baby most of the summer night…
