Somehow we ended up at Hop Leaf. Hop Leaf has beer, oh god does it have beer, but it does not have burgers! IIRC that was partly my decision so I owe Carl bigtime. If you weren't on #chipy then this is to let you know tonight we're going to Fireside, 5739 N Ravenswood Ave, which is 7 blocks away from Imaginary Landscape: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&saddr=5121+North+Ravenswood+Avenue,+Chicago,+IL+60640+(Imaginary+Landscape)&daddr=5739+N+Ravenswood+Ave,+Chicago,+IL+60660+(Fireside)&hl=en&geocode=&mra=ls&dirflg=w&sll=41.978762,-87.674074&sspn=0.019748,0.04004&ie=UTF8&ll=41.980358,-87.674503&spn=0.019747,0.04004&z=15 ... home of the Fireside Burger.
