The weekend shoots, the weekend scores.
This new Uptown Italian spot offers a build-your-own prix fixe dinner, letting you pick and choose three options from its menu of flat iron steaks, gnocchi and octopus salad. The catch: it's from 5-7pm. We say just leave work early—this qualifies as an emergency.
You hardly remember a time when you weren't pouring your own brew from built-in table taps. But maybe it's time to give your tapping arm a rest: Bull & Bear celebrates 12 months of its DIY ethos with free appetizers and vodka cocktails—but feel free to stir.
It's about time you put your devastating good looks to work. This weekend, all haircut revenues at the Southport location of State Street Barbers will go to the charity run by Cubs hurler Ryan Dempster, who will also be on hand for autographs and photos...so be sure to give him one.
Some nights, you just like it dirty and nasty. And this is one of those nights. Chicago's Mudqueens, a troupe of lady mud wrestlers, will entertain you with their mud-flinging prowess (and three appropriately grungy rock bands), forever changing the way you think of pigsties.
Good things from Australia: Nicole Kidman, Portia de Rossi, Cate Blanchett and, of course, kangaroos. Also, that phenomenal chef from Sixteen, Frank Brunacci. He's hosting an Australian festival with wine tastings, an art market and live music from some rising Australian pop stars—you're always looking for the next Kylie Minogue.
