I don't know how many folks are not going to the Cubs game on National Thursday but I put out feelers over on the Net54 Non Sports board about a deep dish pizza dinner that night on the theory a lot of folks here are going to the Cubs game and Alan suggested I post here as well (good idea Alan). Really envisioning just a low key excursion as close as possible to the Convention Center and a place where we might be able to have an adult beverage as well.
I won't clog up a thread so please PM me if interested. I will take recommendations on venue for sure and want to make arrangements real soon.
Update: I got a recommendation from a foodie friend who recommends this joint, about a half mile from the CC:
