Nicely executed web site. The graphic design and balance is very
aesthetically pleasing.

It looks to me like most of the non-commercial content on your site would
have a more universal appeal than just to Chicago. You have an abundance of
basic information, for example, that would be particularly helpful for all
the novice cooks and would be cooks everywhere.

Too bad the content sucks. All flash and no substance e.g. the internet
equivalent of a "Potemkin Village".

The concept of this site is very poorly thought out.

It is a nice site, but you don't mention the best thing in Chicago
food - Italian Beef! Don't waste this chance to educate the world.

Well I liked the alcohol substitution bit and could see that
developing as people post their experiences with booze alternatives.
For example, I tried purple grape juice in my bolognese, but it was
far too sweet although it was a step in the right direction flavour
wise. Last time I chucked in some actual grapes (minus seeds), still
a bit sweetish. I have some verjuice to experiment with, the next
time I make it.

Now to go back and check the conversion page...

Hi----

Glad you have a website. :-))

If you review/recommend places to eat, will you be sure to also include the
suburbs?

Some of the Chicago newspaper reviews only go so far, far, way out far, out
as far as Western Ave------Gasp!!--just exaggerating, but not too much.
There are probably 4 to 5 million of us out here beyond the Chicago city
limits :-))

Good luck on your endeavor!!

Best---
Ron

You would do well to go to www.chowhound.com and check the Chicago board.
Lots of talk about Chicago metro area restos, especially the 'burbs....

Did you see Friday's _Tribune_? There was a good article about "diplomatic
dining", e.g. where Chicago - based diplomats go to dine for authentic home
cooking. Many of the places were in the suburbs....
