Northwestern’s new $875 million Ryan Field opened in Evanston exactly 100 years after the original stadium, with a food lineup to match the hype, Michelin-starred chef Rick Bayless, Top Chef winner Stephanie Izard, and a rotating James Beard pavilion.

Would you go for the food as much as the football, or does a stadium menu this elevated feel a little excessive?

Tokofoto just opened in Ukrainian Village, bringing a self-service photo studio trend popular across Asia to the Midwest for the first time.

No photographer needed, you control the camera, lighting, and background yourself, starting at $80 for 20 minutes.

Would you actually book a session like this, or does having full creative control feel more stressful than having someone else behind the camera?

Block 37, the five-level mall in the heart of the Loop, just sold for $30 million, a steep discount from its previous value.

New owner Edwards Realty Group plans to overhaul the tenant mix and give the property a brand new name, moving away from Block 37 entirely.

Does dropping the name actually help this property reinvent itself, or is a rebrand just surface-level without real tenants to back it up?

Tini Bar is opening beneath LIA Tavern in River North, a 30-seat speakeasy where martinis are poured through a tap system built straight through the ceiling.

Guests reach it through a disco ball-lit portal room, with cocktails inspired by the 1950s through the 70s.

Would you go just for the novelty of the ceiling tap, or does the whole retro concept pull you in?

Sip & Guzzle, just named North America’s #1 bar, is taking over the Mile High Cocktail Club on the Four Seasons’ 46th floor through March 14th.

The residency pours cocktails from both sides of the acclaimed New York concept, $85 for two curated drinks.

Would you book this just to say you tried the number one bar in North America, or does hype like this rarely live up to the reservation?

IKEA is closing its 20-plus-year Bolingbrook store and relocating to a smaller format location at Naperville’s Block 59, opening in late 2027.

The move leaves a 27-acre Bolingbrook site open for redevelopment.

Is this a smart move chasing growth, or does Bolingbrook lose something that’s been part of the community for decades?

Jersey Mike’s just opened its second Downers Grove location at 2015 West 63rd Street, joining the original Ogden Avenue spot.

The chain has grown to more than 3,000 locations nationwide, known for fresh-sliced, made-to-order subs.

Are you the type to have a go-to Jersey Mike’s order, or do you switch it up every time?

Susu, the West Loop steakhouse, launched a daytime bakery on October 5th, running 8am to 2pm with pastries and a Wagyu breakfast sandwich.

Chef Alexander Willis modeled the split identity after Kasama, blending French pastry technique with Middle Eastern flavors.

Would you actually make this your regular morning coffee run, or does a steakhouse serving croissants feel like a stretch?

Rivers & Roads Cafe in Edgewater is expanding into the storefront next door with Little Wild, a bookstore and market opening in November, followed by Firefly Softserve in spring.

Owners Janine and Mike Waszkowski are turning this stretch of Devon into a full block of their own.

Would you browse the bookstore side, or is this purely a coffee-and-ice-cream stop for you?
