Tickets for the Friday afternoon Cards-Cubs game came in the mail this week. Scored seats 6 rows behind the Cards dugout for $70 under FV. Still looking for Saturday tickets. May skip Saturday and go Sunday and hope it becomes the ESPN Sunday Night Game.

Decided to stay at Hotel Palomar on State, just north of the river. We enjoy the hell out of that River North/Streeterville area. Definitely hitting Portillo's for lunch one day, since it's just a few blocks away.

Also going to have dinner one night at Benny's Chop house. We had an outstanding meal last time we were there.

Any other suggestions for lunches/dinners?

Definitely up for pizza, but neither of us are fans of the deep dish variety. If we wanted a ****ing casserole, we'd order one. Anyone up there have good pizza with a regular thickness, hand-tossed crust?
Isn't that up by Second City? Loved seeing a comedy play there.
