Monday Night Lights
Funnel Cakes and Football in Wicker Park
Monday.
So far, so good. But, if you need a little encouragement, just keep focused on this:
6 Corners Sports Bar, a new Wicker Park retreat, is out there just waiting for you with all the
football watching, beer drinking, slider eating and—for a little half-time entertainment—funnel
cake chocolate-dipping you can handle.
It's located in the former D'Vine space, but the owners decided indulge to their inner Bill Swerski Super
Fans since they happen to be the hosts of
EC Sports, the
SportsCenter of Comcast's Public
Access channel, which will be taped here monthly.
Still, 6 Corners is more of a plain-white jersey of a space, agnostic when it comes to team allegiances. So
you can come in and grab a table—any one will do, since there are 14 screens covering every
angle—and settle in for a night of football (or tennis or golf or rugby or soccer), sauces and
sliders. There are eight of those (think fried chicken, sirloin and tilapia), along with a dizzying array of
dipping sauces, ranging from cilantro ranch to Caribbean honey.
Then, if you're up for some fondue with your football (and why wouldn't you be), order some mini funnel
cakes and doughnut holes for dessert, which you'll dip into cups of chocolate, strawberry or dulce de
leche.
Consider them delicious little holes in one.
