Quack: Sun Wah Bar-B-Q. Quack: Sun Wah Bar-B-Q. Filed under Drink and Eat. There are two reasons to go to Sun Wah [http:/ www.sunwahbbq.com/]: duck and secret menu items. Duck, the glorious big-boned bird; with its crispy skin and glorious, tender meat that just falls apart in the mouth. Sun Wah understands this is not something to be taken lightly. Also, rumor on the street says that the Mike’s chicken item is tops. Again, call ahead. Sun Wah Bar-B-Q, 5039 N. Broadway. Tell us what you're thinking.

Radiohead: Working on New Album. Radiohead: Working on New Album. Filed under Arts and Theater. Well, god damn. It seems like just yesterday Radiohead released the beautiful and brilliant “In Rainbows,” but it looks like the boys are at it again. Radiohead reminds me in so many ways how bad other bands suck. Groundbreaking, with most steps — musically and business wise — Radiohead pushing out another obviously awesome record is like the goose laying a golden egg. Kraftwerk inspired Radiohead songs?

Eve Understands Brunch : Chicago Blogger
http://chicagoblogger.com/eat/eve-understands-brunch
Filed under Drink and Eat. Gripe #528 about downtown Chicago: eateries are in extremes. Your choice:. 1 Fancy place serving truffle oil infused vertically plated trendy protein of the moment topped with bacon foam, requiring payment on a diamond-encrusted credit card, or. 2 A lovely generic chain restaurant. The end. Brunch, by the by, is terribly underrated. It’s the best of both breakfast and lunch food, combined into one ultimate supermeal. Two meals in one! Not uncommonly served with adult beverages!

Twin Anchors: All Aboard. Twin Anchors: All Aboard. Filed under Drink and Eat. It was pretty busy on a Thursday night with a 5 minute wait for a 9:00 dinner time. We sat in the bar booths and had a great view of Blackhawks game on 3 big HD TVs. It wasn’t distracting, it was great. The bar was also full with people drinking happily. Twin Anchors seems like a nice place to get full and get drunk. Places like Twin Anchors are a joy to have in Chicago. Well-worn, tried and true. Tags: best ribs chicago.
