It's been nearly a month since I put my condo on the market and moved in with Jason in the West Loop. Our plan is to keep his condo as our weekend home and give Jason somewhere to stay when he has to work out of Chicago. It's been an easy transition and a ton of fun so far, although it doesn't yet feel much different than me "staying over."
Coincidentally, in the past two weeks articles about his neighborhood have run in Time Out Chicago and Chicago Magazine for the Best New Restaurant Issue. With old favorites like De Cero and Publican (pictured above) and new hot spots like Girl and the Goat, Maudes Liquor Bar (below) and Next/Avairy opening recently; it's hard to argue against Randolph Street being the best place for dining in the city.
A few weeks ago Nellcote (below) opened, I can't wait to try it. News broke recently of other big names joining the scene this spring/fall like Graham Elliot's GEB and Stephanie Izard's Little Goat.
While most of these are special occasion restaurants because of the waitlist and price range, I'm looking forward to Friday night train rides from Milwaukee to our Chicago condo followed by date night with Jason at any of these places now within walking distance!
