Father Time
Dining With Dad Made Easy
We don't know your father, but we're pretty sure he can pick out his own damn ties. So this Father's Day, give him the one thing he can't buy for himself—time with you. Here's where to make the most of it.
Golf & Brunch at the Trump
Sixteen offers the over-the-top brunch buffet you'd expect—everything from omelets to
oysters—but be sure to make a pit stop at the nine-hole mini-golf course set up next door. Experts
will analyze Pop's swing, which is probably the best gift his golf game could hope for.
- 411:
- $90 brunch, 10:30am-3pm, June 21, Trump Hotel, 401 N. Wabash Ave, 312-588-8030
Whole Hog at Smoke Daddy
Because one day just isn't enough for the man who helped bring you into the world, the Wicker Park barbecue
honky-tonk is unleashing an all-you-can-eat whole pig roast salute to Dad…on Saturday. The smoked pig
will be accompanied by beer, slaw, house-made chips and a live blues band, belting out tales of woe even the
big guy can't match.

- $25, noon-3pm, June 20, Smoke Daddy, 1804 W. Division St, 773-772-6656
Fathers and Suds at C-House
Along with his dinner—think suckling pig or house-made tagliatelle—Dad will be treated to a trio
of complimentary Belgian-style beers from Unibroue at this elegant chop and seafood destination. Think of it
as three cheers for Pop—and if you're good, maybe he'll slip one to his son.

- 5:30pm, June 21, C-House, 166 E. Superior St (in Affinia Chicago), 312-523-0923
Cigars & Bad Ties at Crimson Lounge
Single-malt scotch is 25 percent off, masseurs will be on hand to soothe his aching back, and cigars will be
hand-rolled on the premises. Plus, there's an ugly tie contest—which means last year's hideous present
(from your siblings, of course) could win him a two-night stay at the Hotel Sax.

- 4pm-2am, June 21, Crimson Lounge, 333 N. Dearborn St (at river), 312-371-6923
Meat Market at David Burke's
If Dad just wants his favorite chair and the game on his big day, bring the restaurant to him. Primehouse
offers everything from its famed salt-cave aging room—from bone-in filet to a 20-ounce
porterhouse—to go, complete with grilling instructions. Not that he needs them, right?
