Kal: Ah, I see now... @-)

Po' lil brain on overload and I guess I just didn't get the connection the first time. Now that you mention it, such striking similarities...

Maybe there's more than meets the eye here why you and Da Coach cannot be together...(Clark Kent = Superman)???? :D

Now, as an apology to all for my silly banter, I'll give a couple of other fine restaurant selections: One of my favorites is Le Colonial (French Vietnamese - on Rush 1/2 block north of Walton) but I've recently gone to Le Lan - also French Vietnamese (at Clark & Superior) and it is FINE (casual fine dining)...Pricier but wonderful. They were recently having some prix fixe selections (Tuesdays, 3 courses $36) but don't know if that's still going - always a good thing to keep your eyes open for those pre-theatre dining specials.

However, the one that's going to be opening soon (next week or two) that I know I'll have to try is Frontera Fresco in the Marshall Field's on State food court. Rick Bayless is busy-busy-busy nowadays, which is a good thing!

P.S. The Frontera Fresco target opening date is October 10.
