Evenings out in Millenium and Grant Park
Hey,
Well well well, gotta catch up again:a lot of work lately, and few entertainement… BUT a couple of nice evenings out.
After seeing a nice concert by a Mexican group in Millenium Park, we had great Wednesday deals thanks to friends and Metromix in a place called Zapatista, a tapas bar (again!!) 1307 S. Wabash Ave. A very nice place, very romantic for whoever wants to hang out with their sgnificant other. BUT we missed the weekly fireworks (usually at 9.30pm, sharp) on Millenium Park.
On Friday, we ended up having a picnic right next to the Baked Bean, nibbling on carrots and pretzels while having girls’ talk. Then we headed to Grant Park, going through a huge crowd coming out of the Taste of Chicago, to enjoy the Summer Dance Festival. Salsa was the dance of the night, before taking a long walk up North to the Crimson Lounge. We felt sooo underdressed for this place but I have to say, it’s pretty nice and fancy…
Watch out: the gay pride parade pics are coming soon.
See ya!
M.
