Please do BTW. If anyone knows good food, it is the New Yorkers. Let me know what he says.

Pond is good for me. I can swim. Be neat to be in one of those polar bear clubs. But funny.

I have never of it before.

Thank you kindly sir. I will check all three out. We are going to see Wicked and then to the Bulls game on Saturday. Should be a nice weekend. You guys have got a great city.

hey, it's not a nice restaurant by any stretch so it probably won't be good for NYE -- but if you're around on new year's day and have an hour to kill, head to DAO right on the mag mile.

it's on ohio just east of michigan ave, and has without a doubt, the best thai cuisine i have ever had. i've been going downtown from the suburbs since i was 17 for that stuff.

hey euro , ive eaten at many of the top restaurants in chi town. tell me what your looking for ?fine dining, steak house etc. atmosphere etc?and price range? are you willing to try creative new thngs or? just tell me and can give you some spots.

Thanks for the offer to help. My wife is a vegetarian and I like just about anything. Price is not an issue at all. I would like something that is romantic but not snobby. I hope that makes sense. Something with a good, fun, romantic atmosphere.

I personally like Ditka's, but you won't go wrong down there at most places. There is one place that it just unbelievable and that is Chop House.....

ok if you want first class fine dining in the world with a adventurous side but very expensive try either charlie trotters, whowill treat you like royalty 2 -7 course chefs tastings one is complete veg expect between 400 to 500 with tip, or tru, which has chef tasteing menus high priced but vaery creative the caviar staircase is a hoot. for great french cuisine i suggest everst, great view great french food very elegent, if you love italian spiaggias is italian with a fine ding twist, best view on top of the john han**** on the signature room food average , but the view!!!mexican with a fine dining twist topolobampos, steak houses that are tops are gibsons, or my fav gene and georghettis italin stak house , steaks there are broiled , large servings you get the good old boy feel being served by all old italian men , feel of anew york steak house with a attitude like , you wouldnt be surprised if the mob was sitting right next to ya

chop house is good but gibsons in my opinion and gene and georghettis is better if you are flying in eat at the hilton at ohare a roll back to the 20's , speakeasy type atmosphere and the best filet mignon in chicago, and ig you dont mind being served by pretty girls in fish net stockings and skimpy playboy type bunney outfits with a piano bar and the piano player is hilarious ythe name is the gas light club
