I will be around Mar 18 and 19. If it is in the city, I can probably make it. I get confused and disoriented in the burbs.
I might make a suggestion, if people are willing to do Thai. My favorite Thai restaurant is Thai Village, 2053 W Division St. The food is yummy, yummy, yummy and it is BYOB, which saves drunks like me a ton of money in Chicago! 4 of us always order 4-5 dishes to share, some spicy, some not. And we bring our own beer and wine. Always a great evening, you will get out of here for less than $15 per person - remember BYO! Street parking is OK on a Tuesday night. This would be a great place for a FT dinner sometime. You can watch the look on the faces of the staff when my wife speaks Thai to them.
I'll drag her along if ILuvParis and g_leyser will be there ... she likes them for some reason.
Whatever you decide, let us know.
