CHICAGO - weekend Mini Do - Sept 21/22
Hey all, a number of Do's happening this weekend. Join for all of the activities or just one, your choice, just confirm to the thread what you plan on attending so I can manage expectations for venues/restaurants.
Saturday September 21: 1:20pm Cubs game vs the St Louis Cardinals Wrigley Field - I have 3 tickets and they are spoken for. I am happy to lend assistance to purchase tickets for a group of folks if needed. So if interested in the game, let the thread know 5:30pm Dinner at D'Candela C'mon out to D'Candela a Peruvian restaurant that is BYOB (Bring your own booze). The restaurant is VERY easy to get to with public transportation, it is only a few blocks away from the Blue Line (& Metra) Irving Park stop. Fellow FT members & I dined here awhile back in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018 and we enjoyed everything we had. Some examples of very tasty dishes include: Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken roasted slowly over real charcoal Ceviche Mixto - Seafood and fresh tilapia marinated with lime juice, cilantro and rocoto pepper. Served with red onions, sweet potato, potato and Peruvian white corn. Slightly spicy. Ocopa - Boiled and sliced potatoes topped with creamy sauce made with huacatay herb, nuts, milk and cheese. Served with boiled egg. Chicha Morada - Traditional homemade Peruvian drink made of purple corn. D'Candela 3447-3449 W Irving Park Rd, Chicago, IL 60618 Chicago, IL 60618 http://www.dcandela.com/ After Dinner, maybe drinks, maybe music club, maybe comedy club, TBD. (I have a number of ideas but suggestions welcome) Sunday September 22: 8am Breakfast - (yes I know it is early but there are some that are likely to need a flight out on Sunday, so allowing plenty of time for those folks to get to the airport) Wishbone (Southern breakfast/brunch). The red eggs or shimp n grits are just two of the delicious items served. 161 N Jefferson St Chicago IL 60661 https://www.wishbonechicago.com/ Working on a Sunday mid morning activity. Stay tuned. Who's interested?

At some point the calendar will line up so I can get back to Chicago... |
I am interested but not sure if I am available. |
I will definitely participate in some parts of the weekend
|
I have to pass on both this and Oktoberfest. Haven't been there in 15 years either. So no brats or Cuy for me that weekend.
|
We will be in Iceland that weekend and have to miss this one. Sounds like some good eating - hope everyone enjoys.
|
Please add me to the Saturday D'Candela dinner.
