Restaurant Week is continuing until March 6th so today Fox and I are venturing out to Cafe Ba Ba Reeba to try a three course lunch for only $22. Events like Restaurant Week are brilliant, no matter the city, as it lures you into areas and cuisines you normally may not experience. It definitely worked for us as we would have had sandwiches otherwise ;-)
Besides Restaurant Week, March signals the start of St Patrick's Day in a city filled with Irishmen. Decorations are up in pubs everywhere already and today was the first of many St Patrick's Day parades.
What I can't wait for however, is when they dye the Chicago river green. A modern day miracle occurs each year as part of the St Patrick's Day parade celebration when the Chicago river turns an incredible shade of Irish green. This spectacular transformation ranks right up there with the parting of the sea by Moses and the Pyramids of Egypt.
