Bar #9 - The Knockout


We got rallied into a Sunday night dinner out, so we decided to knockout (get it?!?) another bar from the list. Finally, a bar that I would come back to! They have lots of good beer on tap and the best name ever for a cocktail (of which Molly could not get enough): the "Absolut Manberry". After reading the name, everything else said sounded dirty for the next 20 minutes. Try it and see!

The bar itself is a great space decorated with album covers, photos of Chicagoland gangsters and miscellanious car parts. They have one of those coin operated photo booths, which we should have used to take some group pictures but didn't. The bar was dimly lit, had plenty of seating and had great music on. It might be a bit more crowded on weekends, but it was comfortably dead on Sunday. While there, we found out that another friend of ours, Tim, does sushi catering there on Wednesdays (plug, plug, check it out).
