The weekend would never hide anything from you.
Your Perks include a kit with ghost peppers, secret spices and the juice from award-winning pickles—all for making 10 to 12 killer Bloody Marys. You’re also getting beautiful, limited-edition surf photography, and 30% off at Banana Republic when you Perk with an Outlook.com account. (If you somehow don’t have one, get on it.)
This will sound a little weird at first, but here it is: there’s a contest to see which bartender can create a cocktail that tastes like Bucktown. No, seriously. Antique Taco, Club Lucky, Fatpour, Prasino and others are all involved. Think of it as a lazy man’s bar crawl.
Hey, it’s spring. Wardrobe refresh time. And now that Bonobos has moved into a cooler spot, they have room for a personal stylist for you. Make an appointment, try on something light and breezy, leave your address and be on your way. The clothes will track you down.
If you’re in the mood for a new suit... and some bubbly to go with it, this pop-up wine tasting is taking over Suitsupply’s Gold Coast terrace tomorrow. It’ll give you easy access to chardonnays, sparkling wines, canapés and all the blazers a gentleman needs to enjoy them.
So a stand-up comic and a striptease artist walk into a room... oh, wait. You’re there, too. Let’s start over: you’re spending an evening at the Wiggle Room, where you’ll experience a blend of a fully clothed stand-up male comic and some not-so-fully clothed female burlesque performers. You won’t confuse the two.
This Easter Sunday event is strictly BYOB. But the last B is for basket. (They always have plenty of booze on hand.) You’ll start at Longman & Eagle’s new Off Site Bar, then scour Logan Square in an attempt to find the most eggs for prizes, glory and, of course, whiskey.
