  1. Oh, yes, the Peninsula is that good

    <i>Part of a series of mini-reviews of Chicago-area hotels.</i>
    Part of a series of mini-reviews of Chicago-area hotels. Does the 10-year-old Peninsula Chicago deserve all of its accolades? Does it merit Forbes' five-star and AAA's five-diamond ratings or a seemingly perennial spot on Conde Nast Traveler's Gold List?...

  3. Two Michelin-star chef Jason McLeod, formerly of Ria, surfaces in San Diego

    The timing was strange. After chef Jason McLeod won two Michelin stars at Ria last November, shocking the Chicago dining scene but mostly himself, McLeod unexpectedly left the restaurant three months later. The Elysian Hotel&rsquo;s press release noted his departure with a curiously-brief acknowledgment: &ldquo;McLeod has decided to pursue other opportunities and is no longer with the Elysian&rsquo;s culinary team.&rdquo; He disappeared from public view, and attempts to contact McLeod proved unsuccessful. Conspiracy theorists had a field day.

  10. Making Chicago's top chef

    Grant Achatz moved up the aisle of the plane, his carry-on draped over his gaunt frame. It was October at Reagan National Airport, a rare moment of calm for Chicago's top chef, whose wary eyes belong to a man older than 36, and whose life has been blessed and cursed with incident. He was traveling with his two young sons, and they had just visited with the parents of his girlfriend, food journalist Heather Sperling. They were headed home to Chicago, trudging through the cabin of the plane toward coach, when his younger son, Keller, swung his backpack into a well-dressed man in first class.

    Like many long-time residents in her working-class neighborhood, Cinthia Miranda takes comfort in the stability and sense of community McKinley Park offers. With its convenient location, cultural diversity and affordable housing, it's no wonder the Southwest Side neighborhood has attracted newcomers and kept the locals firmly in place.

  12. Galewood a convenient, close-knit Chicago neighborhood

    Galewood resident Nick Sposato wheels his impeccably-maintained 12-year-old sedan into a Grand Avenue spot and ambles into Reuter's Bakery. A bouquet of confectioner's sugar and chocolate greets him, as do the long-time employees waiting behind the cake- and cookie-filled glass cases.
