CHICAGO - Southside Lakeshore picnic - Calumet Fisheries - Tues July 30
Hey all, it has been awhile since we've been to the southside of Chicago, awhile ago a number of us FTers picked up some delicious items (such as smoked shrimp & salmon, fried oysters & perch, etc) from Calumet Fisheries
We then drove to the very nearby Calumet Park and had our meal on the beach there. Hoping to repeat this at end of July or first part of August. As an alternate if the weather is not cooperative on the day of scheduled event, we'll default to a southside soulfood restaurant. Date: Tuesday July 30 Time: 6:30pm Venue: Calumet Fisheries 3259 E 95th St Chicago, IL 60617 http://www.calumetfisheries.com/ (see menu on their website) Attending: polkacat Dr88 shoeflyer Plainsman pudgym29 Jason8612 ckpeter +1 Willie Maybe: grbflyer No can Do: toomanybooks +2 Ceres bk3day CMK10 BuildingMyBento MSPeconomist DBoy - -- |
Maybe depending on date.

Sounds great. Count me in.
|
I should be in town July and Aug and should be able to join.
|
The weekend of July 22nd would work well with me. Nothing else works in August unfortunately.

Calumet Fisheries is a venue which is not easy to reach on public transit. :eek:
It is a half-mile walk from the nearest CTA bus stop {incredible}. But I have always wanted to go there, so I am definitely interested. |
It's been quite a few years since we last went there!
Put me down as interested. |

Haven't made a DO in a while, need to make amends for that, so I'm interested, but it depends on the date SW picks....
Also will note that Metra Electric District runs to 93rd St from Millennium Station, so there is public transportation of a sort that gets you close. |
Sounds great & very much hope to attend!

Last DO there was back in 2013, six years ago: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/comm...sept-24-a.html

Grew up on the southside, so went there literally hundreds of times. Especially during Lent. There used to be a great place across the street called the kingfish in the old days.
When I go now, I usually just sit on the hood of the car and ea it there, But then again I am usually carrying concealed. Depending on the day, I would be interested. We have to go before they go by the wayside. |
