Pelago Opens for Dinner
Lunch at a sexy Italian restaurant can lead to some interesting propositions…like, for instance,
dinner. After six weeks of dazzling you in the afternoon, this new Streeterville gem now serves its venison
ragu gnocchi and crab meat risotto for dinner. There's no telling where that will lead. We're guessing
dessert.

Complimentary Oysters at Goose Island
Shaw's annual oyster-eating street bacchanal, Royster With the Oyster, doesn't happen until next week, but
you can start slurping early at Goose Island's preview party. Every time you order a beer, you'll get an
order of oysters on the house. Because practice makes perfect.

Mustache & Cleavage Party
Consider this the Burt and Loni of breast cancer fund-raisers. Gentlemen are encouraged to sport facial hair
(you've got 24 hours to concentrate on growing some), while ladies are encouraged to display ample
décolletage. Well, we suppose you can concentrate on that, too.
