  1. For the record, this item appeared in several news sources yesterday, including the AP, via the Chicago Tribune:
    Charlie Trotter, an iconic chef whose name is synonymous with Chicago's gourmet cuisine, wants to dish out a second helping of his five-star meals.

    Trotter, a Chicago native whose self-titled restaurant draws gourmands and members of the expense-account set, announced Wednesday he plans to open a second Chicago eatery in a new 60-story luxury hotel and condominium project.

    The as-yet-unnamed restaurant -- a fine-dining, dinner-only venue that will have a more casual dining area for breakfast, lunch and dinner -- is scheduled to open in October 2008 at The Elysian Hotel on the Gold Coast.

    Of course, after what didn't happen at the Time Warner Center in NYC, it's probably wise to view this 'news' with a grain of salt.

    A bit off topic but i recently ate at Charlie Trotters and picked up his book Lessons in Service, very impressive book

  2. I am looking to hire a personal chef for a night to create a gourmet meal for 5 guests at my house. I have a lot of cooking supplies, but the chef will likely have to bring some of his/her own too.

    We are all foodies and are looking for a chef with personality who wouldn't mind jazzing it up with us and talking about thier food when serving it.

    I live downtown and the chef's services will be needed on a weekend night some time this month.

    Thanks!
