1. Kabuki Romanza Japanese Steakhouse
I was highly impressed when I walked through the doors of Kabuki Romanza. It has a modern, inviting, fun feel to it.
Kabuki is huge with a variety of dining areas. One could take in the Texas heat on the beautiful outdoor area, be entertained by a…More »

Before starting the road trip to Marfa I reconciled that there will be no sushi in my diet for the next 4 days.
Then for dinner on our last night stay, we discovered the Uchi of Marfa. Beautiful modern decor, great service, lovely food, overall the…More »
3. Bult's Bakery & Cafe
Oh the childhood memories of sneaking off the bus a few stops before the middle school drop off and bolting off to Bult's. They serve locally made Sun Drop in the glass bottle (I promise it is better that way) and they have the best cream filled…More »
4. DiSotto Enoteca
Chicago, IL 60611
(312) 482-8727
After a good fill of fun Chicago dive bars, I was ready for a nice glass of wine. I did a Yelp search and Francesca's quickly pulled up. We walked in, it was nice but the typical restaurant bar atmosphere.
I see a stairwell and inquire of the…More »
5. Gordon's Wine Bar
London WC2N 6NE

Wine, bread and brie with ambiance to boot. While visiting London I stopped by Gordon's one evening. I wanted to check out the establishment that boasts "oldest wine bar in London". The place was packed and there was no seating available (not…More »
6. Marfa Book Company
The cashier behind the desk at Marfa Book Co. is more than just an American Apparel clad hipster, he is also the owner. He didn't seem to mind that every 2 minutes someone walked through his doors simply to ask for directions nor did he mind that…More »

Neighbourhood: The Loop
This park blew me away! An impressive amphitheater, the mystifying bean, the water fountains with gigantic walls of interchanging faces, and a beautiful melting pot of people.
I enjoyed the Monday free concert series along with many others yesterday.…More »
8. McDonald Observatory
Being a bit of a geology geek I loved the McDonald Observatory.
McDonald Observatory is in the Davis Mountains just North of Marfa, TX. They have several programs day and night offering a wonderful opportunity to view the stars and ask astronomers…More »

American (Traditional)
Neighbourhood: Near North Side
After 2 restaurant fails (one was closed & the other...drinks started at $9 for 3 ounces of champagne. NO thanks!) we decided on pizza.
There was a 30 minute wait, this could only be a good sign that this was the place to get some pie. Be prepared…More »
10. Padre's
Seeking a quick bite to eat that was not super expensive in Marfa on a Sunday is not the easiest of tasks. We wondered into Padres big spacious bar to find stools on the tables except for a few at the bar that were occupied. The owner exclaimed "we…More »

The Drawing Room was one of my favorite dining experiences in Chi town.
The Drinks: First off The Drawing Room boasts themselves to have Culinary mixology, treating their drinks as they do their cuisine. We tried the Nooner, very strong with an…More »

Neighbourhood: Near North Side
A total win. We walked in for a glass of wine. Well, they don't "do" glasses of wine they do wine by the 1/4 liter, 1/2 liter, liter or bottle starting at $5! Believe me, these prices are unheard of in Chicago from what I saw the week I was there. I…More »
