Fri April 19 at 7:00 PM, Cheesies
958 West Belmont Avenue, Chicago, IL, USA (Map & Directions)
April is National Grilled Cheese Month. Let's celebrate together at Cheesies (958 West Belmont Avenue Chicago, IL 60657).
I believe this is the last of the events discussed by the planning committee (TINCC planning commitee) focusing on getting together on a weekend, and basing the get together around cheese. Please feel free to discuss at this meetup when we should next get together on a weekend and eat cheesy things.
CHEEEEEESE
Yes, I concur.
I assume this is the antipodal meetup. So we're looking at midway through this, the cheeseist and cruelest month. April 20th? Early evening/prior to what-the-hell-am-I-doing-in-this-part-of-town-with-all-these-people time?

This is A antipodal meetup. There maybe other ones as well.
And it starts on 4/19, though we can keep eating cheese and drinking scotches til 4/20 rolls around if you like.

Even less stumbling distance to my home. This is a good choice.

Sorry, reading comprehension fail/ wishful thinking. I thought it was more like feel free to discuss when we should have THIS meetup regarding cheesy things.
The wishful thinking part is that Saturday would be far more amenable, for me.

srboisvert: I am close to certain that the Radical Anti-Wrigley-hotel-Development-Shenanigans crowd was behind the goat thing.

Radical because someone thought putting a goats head in a box was a good idea, or radical in other ways too?

The former, certainly, hopefully also the latter. Things could get interesting . . . .

so If you're into that sort of thing, groupon has a cheesie's groupon going. I don't groupon and don't know how it works or if this would be an occasion when it wouldn't, but those of you into it can probably figure it out.

I'm downgrading to a 'maybe' as I'm headed to hand-hold at the hospital...nothing serious, just an MRI was scheduled without talking to me about it by a claustrophobe. Might not make it for dinner but will keep an eye on the thread if things change.
