Chicago Area Peeps?

stevo137 · 05-13-2006

Anyone in the area ever eat or drink at Adobo Grill in Old Town?
Great place with a tequila bar that has the best variety in Chicago. They have close to 100 different varieties. The guac is prepared tableside and is awesome!
Would be a great place for a peep meet.
This is their site and the list of tequilas.

We have not been there. We will have to try this out. I was begining to drool when I was reading the tequila menu. Can't go wrong with a tequila flight.

I've been to Chicago and it really is a nice city.
I was planning on going to Naperville in 2 weeks, but now that we are trying to sell 2 houses, it looks as if we won't be able to go. We have friends there and it's a nice place as well.
Is the place you are speaking of close to Naperville?

Naperville is about an hour's drive from Chicago, with traffic and all. I commuted there from my Chicago apt. for over a year to work and was miserable (2 plus hours drive per day). Naperville is a pretty tony suburb with a vibrant downtown area with shops, restaurants, etc.

I'm not that new to the board, but from the Chicago area, Lombard. That Adobo place sounds good. I'm going to a friend of a friend's birthday party at a bar in Wicker Park next Sat, might have to suggest that for dinner first.

Flying to Chicago this eve, headed to Kalamazoo, wish I could try out the food and perhaps a cocktail. Anyone been to Como Inn? We were there years ago and it was during the Italian Fest on Navy Pier...fantastic, believe it or not we ended up a looong picnic table with 15 other folks from Texas. Speaking of food we are heading to Manny's for brisket taco's before going to the airport. Have fun, stay safe!

Have a save flight. It is pretty windy today and supposed to have gusts in excess of 50 MPH later today and tonight.

As always, check your departure time before leaving for the airport.

Hear ya' Heather. It's worse than ever right now due to construction of epic proportions. I travel throughout Chicago and west burbs every week. There is so much growth everywhere that the roads cannot handle it at this point.
Depending on what day and time it is, you can make it downtown from Naperville in about an hour however I would be ready for that fact that it could take you two hours.
From where I am, I can get to downtown in about 50 minutes during the heaviest rush hour. Must be the reason that so many Chicago people are moving in around here, besides taxes...
