Chicago/ORD 11-9 Dinner/Drinks?

Any folks up for a reprise? I know the Chicago crowd is usually a lunch group, but I'm flying in at 7PM and not out until 1AM, so thought I'd see if anybody wants to get together.
I'll trek downtown or do something near the airport (or somewhere off the Blue Line). Anybody? Paging Sweet Willie and holmedown who already said they might be interested

And yes, Nick, if you want, we can call it a moving party. Otherwise you can come up here this weekend and help throw furniture into the truck

YES (best guess as of 8AM CT Wednesday morning)

So, we'll try to grab a table for 6 or 8

Would love to join you, but I"m flying out that day (and possibly into ORD before I fly out ). BTW, when do you move?

Unfortunately (for the drinking, not the moving assistance ) I'll be in Indianpolis that night as part of a 3-day trip.

But I'll catch you in Singapore in April (probably the weekdays 4/26 and 4/27) if I don't see you before you leave.

I should be about - anywhere downtown / blue or red line accessible is fine with me.

Thumbs up

To the best of my (current) knowledge, I should be available that evening.....I'm good to go with any place the group chooses, and will keep an eye on the thread....

Best wishes, Dave

I am around then too, staying at the Hyatt Woodfield (NW 'burbs) but will have a car. Don't know yet if I will get dragged into a company function, but it not, should be free, so I am a "maybe." Prefer someplace with decent (preferably free) parking.

OP needs to change the list to show that I am now confirmed. Isn't Willie confirmed too?

All we need is a place. We can either do Rosemont/Edison Park or we can head a little further into the city, although if iluv2fly joins us for at least a drink before his flight the city won't work.

As long as it is accessible by El/Metra is fine - know the Metra stops at Edison Park as used to stay there a lot ... hmm Moretti's that brings back memories !

Asiana to ICN.

Looks like Nick and I will probably be coming from ORD at the same time, but the preference is still for something transit-accessible. Any locals want to throw a place out. I'm goat-like in my eating habits, so no cuisine is likely to be bothersome to me

Time: 7:30, barring unforeseen delays? Does that leave enough time to get from ORD to Edison park, and still allow iluvmypillows to get a drink with us, should he so desire?

Updated original list.
