WELL-COATED
Losing a Coat, Gaining a Cut
You wore it well. You wore it like nobody else could. That entire igloo disco was agog. But you’ve
decided that someone else needs the magic that is your fur-lined, full-length anorak. For your generosity,
Floyd’s 99’s coat drive rewards you with a half-price haircut.

RYE IT
The Night Chicago Rye’d
Seven rye beers. One rye cocktail. One rye whiskey. One night only. Yes, SmallBar Fullerton has assembled a
sort of rye booze supergroup, simply because you love the way Goose Island Bourbon County Bramble Rye jams
with a $4 Templeton Rye back.

cocktails, cuisine from Hot Chocolate, a kickin’ DJ and general mayhem. Oh, also Rag & Bone clothes

TASTEFUL FILMS
Food Porn. Now Edible.
This film fest centers on food-related documentaries, which is nice. (Also nice: most are under 10 minutes.)
But the party has an oyster roast, Brunswick stew, French pastries and boiled peanuts from the chef at the
Bedford. Movie popcorn: so good. Movie boiled peanuts: so much better.

- Nov 19, 7pm, $65, Food Film Festival at Kendall College, 900 N North Branch St (at Halsted), 866-667-3344
