“Here we come on the run with a burger on a bun…” Do you know this song? It is technically the Car Hop song from the Flintstones but I think it should be the new theme song of Rockit Bar and Grill’s Burger Fest! Celebrated at both Rockit Bar & Grill (22 W. Hubbard) and …

The Grid: A Foodie Fun Day
Last week for my birthday, I received a wonderful gift. A magic wand! My wand, like most cool magical items, had a list of rules and regulations. (I hate magic wand red tape.) One rule was that I could only use one wish a month. (It did not say anything about rollover wishes so I …
Foodie Fun Day: bellyQ
Resolutions. Every year, I look back on my computer and read my list of goals that I made before the new year. Last year’s resolutions were probably similar to many of your own….exercise more, watch television less and do more for other people. (Okay, I didn’t get much exercise in while watching TV but I …
Foodie Fun Day: CHILL 2012
I officially have been going to food events for over year. And there is one consistent thread that runs through each event…my mouth waters. Whether it is the rich aromas that roam through the halls or my first view of a perfectly plated dish of food…my mouth waters. When I see the chefs walking in …
Foodie Fun Day: Food & Wine Chef Showcase 2012
I don’t know what it is about the Food and Wine Chef Showcase in Chicago that makes me smile, it just does. Not just any smile, but a smile that makes my cheeks hurt. It is the kind of smile that resonates through your whole body and makes you put a spring in your step. …
Dragon Ranch Moonshine & BBQ: A Foodie Fun Day

Chicago Gourmet 2012: THE FOOD
The last three days, I have sat down at my computer numerous times to write about the food at Chicago Gourmet this past weekend. I view my notes and pictures and immediately get hungry and feel the need to snack. Preferable snack on food from some of the best chefs and restaurants in Chicago. But …
Foodie Fun Day #21: RA Sushi NEW MENU
Dilemma. I love sushi. (Okay, that is not a dilemma.) The problem is that not all of my friends love sushi. (They have other redeeming qualities.) So every time I leave my small town, I want to go to a sushi restaurant and they don’t. Well thanks to RA Sushi’s new updated menu, I will …
Foodie Fun Day #20: The Lucky Monk
“Elevate your soul.” Is this the motto for a church? Nope. How about a beach yoga class? Nope. It is the part of The Lucky Monk’s motto “Delicious Food and Drink and a Welcome Warm Enough to Elevate Your Soul.” Named in honor of the Trappist Monks (beer crafting masters), The Lucky Monk located in …
N9NE Steakhouse Chicago: Foodie Fun Day #19
Anyone who knows me knows I love numbers. Big , small, rational or irrational, I look at numbers and my brain fires up. (Okay, I am a little OCD and I just love to count things.) So the first time I saw there was a restaurant called N9NE Steakhouse, I was intrigued. This past Friday, …
