Weekend In Chicago: What to do?

Mike Ditka's restaurant at the Tremont Hotel has a really good steak, he has his own line of cigars too. I bought one last time I was there it didn't blow me away but neat to add to one's stash.

Oh man, how did I miss this thread? Sounds like you're having a great time in Chicago. I think the temps are supposed to push into the 50's today so you might want to think about the Chicago Architecture Boat Tour.

The Italian Village gets my vote for a place to eat. If you don't see what you're looking for on the menu just ask them to make if for you (I've never been denied). When cigar manufacturers or guys from Cigar Aficionado come to the shop the boss always goes to the Italian Village with them.

We'd love to have you stop by the shop if you get a chance. We're in the lobby of the Chicago Board of Trade building on the corner of LaSalle and Jackson. The toll free number here is: 888-733-5225 If you need directions or anything please feel free to give me a buzz.

Take care,
Eric
