Been there a couple of months ago. Great place, and the food is excellent. I was with a colleague of mine who told me upfront that he didn't like Mexican food... After diner he told me that this was the best food (he had beef) he had eaten in ages! I can tell that the next time I'm in Chicago you know where I'll go'ne eat! Sauces are great too, took a few bottles with me. By the way I've got a habanero sauce with my habanero chicken dish.. this sauce was quit hot and had great taste... forgot to ask the brand... (did look/taste a bit like Jim's Richouse hab sauce) By the way I got the tip to go there from Joannie (Joan McCutgeon on this list). Hot regards Rob NL ----- Original Message ----- From: "T.
