Organic Theater Company
P.O. Box 578189
Chicago, IL 60657
312.634.0199
"Organic Theater Company is committed to a vision of creating productions with a permanent group of artists over a sustained period of time and presenting them a rotating repertory. This approach, while relatively unusual in the United States, is widely accepted in much of the Western world as the ideal way to make a body of theatrical work. Rotating repertory creates the opportunity for a unique relationship between the company and its audience, one in which the same actor can be seen in a variety of roles over a short period of time. It also allows the actors to work as a single instrument, much like the world’s great orchestras and dance companies."

Big Joe's 2 and 6 Pub
1818 W Foster Ave
Chicago, IL 60640
773.784.8755
"Big Joe's 2 and 6 Pub is almost as obscure as the neighborhood that surrounds it. From the humble brick exterior with its bare wooden door, one would expect to find surly old regulars rather than a really fun neighborhood corner bar that features turtle racing, jazz and even a good room for throwing darts. Bar-goers take note: head up to Big Joe's and you can't go wrong." Review by: Sean Parnell

San Francisco, in 1972, was the birthplace of our casual style 'family-dining' concept. Thirty-four years later we are still following our basic philosophy of using wholesome fresh foods and healthy ingredients. Our burgers are mad with low-fat USDA prime beef (turkey or vegetarian patties can be substituted); we use only farm fresh chicken and turkey products with healthy, fresh salads, sandwiches, and soups. All items are made daily in Mary's kitchens."

An ecclectic American fare with menu items ranging from filet mignon with a gorgonzola cream sauce to spaghettini pasta with shrimp, asparagus and roasted tomatoes in a spicy garlic and olive oil. Specials are offered every evening and include such favorites as the wasabi marinated yellow fin tuna steak served with wasabi mashed potatoes."
