Chicken Works (But How?)
Chicken Works and Salad Company is a grilled-chicken and salad bar joint in northwest Chicago (in the Irving Park neighborhood).

Honey Butter Fried Chicken
Honey Butter Fried Chicken: Chicago restaurant review. Delicious, trendy, deservedly on the slightly expensive side … weird tipping policy.
Hot “G” Dog
Hot “G” Dog, a gourmet hot dog restaurant in Chicago’s Andersonville neighborhood, makes sausages and duck fat fries that carry on the Hot Doug legacy, right next door to Man’s Country, a very different kind of hot dog shop. Please enjoy our weiner review.

Coffee, Free WIFI: Lake View, Chicago
Uh, you guess it: it’s another café review. But look at that awesome silver cup! Terrific Turkish coffee, and you don’t have to worry about werewolves.
