Morton's

Bild
So Indy loves steakhouses and my son loves steak---we were out celebrating with him and decided to check out a place that I had never been and cross another one off the list.   We made a big deal out of taking him to a “fancy” steakhouse and he was excited.   As soon as you walk into Morton’s, you certainly get the old-school steakhouse vibe. The big wooden door, no windows…you walk down a flight of steps to the actual restaurant with its tuxedoed servers and white tablecloths.   The maître d' greeted my son in a very friendly way, and we started off on a nice foot. I didn’t know how they might react to a kid in the place, but he was exceptionally kind.   Our server seemed slightly less thrilled with it, but was still professional. We were seated in a nice booth (most of the restaurant is made up of U-shaped booths). Once we sat down though, we discussed the fact that the place just feels dated with its camel colored booths and very old school feel.   I don’t kn...

Road Trip: Frontera Grill--Chicago

Bild
Hubby and I just got back from a crazy food heavy trip to Chicago. People always look at me funny when we are there and they are asking why we are visiting, and I say, “to eat.”   Well, most people. A few of them get it.   Anyway, I nervously agreed to no reservations on this trip, and we were excited about trying several places that we had heard a lot about but never went because I hate the idea of waiting.   We did it last time with Avec and had a good experience, and decided to wing this whole trip.   I am a total planner though, and trying to figure out the best strategy for getting into these places made my stomach hurt a little.   I guess I am a little high strung. So the first night we were torn between a couple of places, but decided to go to one of the places fairly near to where we were staying, and chose Frontera Grill.   Neither of us had been, and hubby had never been to any of the Bayless restaurants.   (I have been to Topolo before)...

The Libertine

Bild
So the Libertine calls itself a “Liquor Bar.”   And they have a lovely large bar all along one wall and specialize in the whole trendy old fashioned/classic cocktails from days gone by.   Ok, so don’t be mad, but screw the cocktails.   The food at this place is the reason for going.   Everything I have been reading about this place is about how great the cocktails are or how cute the bartenders are (seriously? That’s what we’re talking about?) but I am here to tell you, the food is where it’s at (not to say either of the other statements are not true).   I don’t know, maybe everyone gets too drunk to remember the food or something, but if that’s the case, you need to lay off the booze and focus people. The interior is beautiful—modern and calm.   While it is a bar, there is a certain grown up sensibility—not your typical loud raucous bar scene.   Of course, it wasn’t full when we stopped in midweek, so I am sure it is noisier when you go on a Friday n...

Long battery recharging continues to be the largest hurdle for that car industry to beat. But a technology being produced by Nissan and Japan’s Kansai University could solve the issue.

The Ripple Inn- Revisit- Lunch

Bild
I heard there was a new chef at the Ripple Inn (Charles Mereday), and after checking out the fancy electronic video menu outside the restaurant the other day, I was intrigued to try it again.   I really want to go for dinner, but my schedule/babysitting has been so crazy, I have been having a hard time fitting dinners in.   So after seeing they have started serving lunch, the BFF and I headed over to give it a try. So walking in, there were not a lot of people in there, which has been the case the last few times I have been there.   We chose to sit in the bar, simply because there were some people there. I’m not sure, but I think the menu is the same for lunch and dinner, which was a little confusing for me because I am not much for ordering an appetizer and entrée type thing for lunch, but there aren’t a lot of smaller options—well, there are a lot of appetizers and they still have the potato skins, and a few sandwiches, but it mainly seems laid out like a dinner menu. I...

The Breast Cancer

Taking Control The Breast Cancer More than two million women living in the United States today have been treated for breast cancer, according to the American Cancer Society. Fortunately, we live at a time in medical history when increasingly sophisticated, lifesaving treatments are changing the course of this disease for hundreds of thousands of women. Just a handful of years ago, some of the most remarkable advances in surgery, radiation, and anticancer drugs were not yet widely available. Now, for most women, a breast cancer diagnosis may prove in hindsight to be a rough bump in the road, while the length of that road ultimately remains unchanged. For those living with metastatic breast cancer, an expanding list of treatments may be life-extending, also. Yet whether breast cancer treatments have been tested over decades or emerge as new stars, they may take a heavy toll on a woman’s body. “In barely a year, I’ve aged a decade,” one breast cancer survivor succinctly reported,...

Thr3e Wise Men

Bild
Thr3e Wise Men is the latest project of Scott Wise, who owns the Scotty’s Brewhouses and Scotty’s Lakehouse at Geist.   I always joke that the surest way to stir things up is to write a review of a Scotty’s enterprise. These reviews always seem to bring people out for comments. I will be interested to see if this is the case with this review. Anyway, I already liked this place when I saw the fact that the menu is so much more limited than others in Scotty’s arsenal.   It is pretty much pizza, sandwiches, a salad and a few appetizers (fear not fried pickle lovers, they are there).   But the focus is pizza-type foods and beer, which they are also brewing in house. We had put off going up till now because I had heard there are no backs on the seats in the restaurant (mostly picnic tables, but there are some tables in a banquette with backs) and we were waiting for a nice day to sit outside at the tables and chairs out there (with backs).   Hubby has back problems and ge...

Szechwan Garden

Bild
I have been wanting to try out this place for lunch ever since I heard they have dim sum on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays.   I have been nagging hubby for a Friday lunch over there, and he finally gave in. I love dim sum, and while I enjoy the dim sum lunches at Shanghai Lil’s, variety is the spice of life right? And it is always nice to find something a little cheaper.   Szechwan Garden is set in what looks like an old family style restaurant—it is quite large.   When we got there, there weren’t many people in there and the menu they gave us was not the dim sum menu, so make sure if that is what you go for, that you ask.   They brought us one, with pictures and everything. So we ordered the standards for us—the spring rolls, the shrimp dumplings, the sui mai, as well as a few other things—the fried dumplings and the scallion pancake. Probably our favorite thing was the fried dumplings ($3.95)*—they wer e sort of like pot stickers in flavor, but the dumpling skin se...
