Well, I'm staying at the Travelodge Chicago in downtown (and Chef and Ygrii probably too)- it's one block from the subway/El and near the museums. The address is 65 East Harrison. I can assume that we are gathering somewhere downtown or maybe somewhere jblaque likes, but if it's out of town we can force iron_chef_gein to take us in his car. But I would prefer somewhere downtown near our hotel so we can stmble drunkenly back to our rooms without having to drive.

That would be so awesome if you could come!
