But, I can't immediately think of anything that would meet their needs. Smallish, with a street-level presence on N. Michigan. There are some places south of the bridge, but that's not really where they need to be.

I also found it interesting that they're opening a branch in Manhattan - wonder how that will pan out.

It certainly would come in handy in the winter and summer. I find inside lines a little more comfortable than standing outside. :)

I do like their caramel corn better than most that I've had (other than homemade), especially when it's still warm although it's still pretty good after it cools down. Can't say that it's something I'd endure the lines or cost to buy for someone to ship it to them, though.
Agreed. Some of the BEST popcorn around. I recommend the location on Randolph betweeen State and Dearborn - they make it fresh there and you get a little more generous pour there.
