Just everything was perfect about the event. Before going to the Naperville Winter Ale Fest, I did a bit of research to check out which breweries would be there and what they'd be serving. There were many unique offerings (and that's coming from a beer chick with 2675 check ins on Untappd) that I was very excited about. I had my first draft from Alaska plus some rare Goose Island beers...and on & on. I was very impressed. Aside from the stellar breweries and beer options, there were many great food trucks serving up eats. A bunch of great options including a few I hadn't tried before. There were also other random vendors, I ended up buying some Chicago wood art from one of them which I'm now obsessed with. Parking was super easy and plentiful, entrance was super quick & easy as well, and people watching was SO fun here! There really isn't a negative aspect or improvement I can think of to pass on to the organizers except having some seats around for people. There were a few around the bonfires but they were always taken so we ended up sitting on the curb a few times. There was only one brewery I saw that cashed out an hour end but all the others did a pretty good job of bringing enough beer for all festival goers. This was seriously such a fun event! Definitely worth the trek from the city into the far away land of Naperville. I'd go to their summer beer fest and the winter fest again, as well.

Route 66 Raceway - the good and the bad. One man's perspective. First time here and I had high…read morehopes. First, it's a nice track. Plenty of seating, although for some reason many sections were empty/closed off to fans. Lots of food and beverage here, but my gripes are no cash, only cards. Not a fan. As for beer choices, it's all light beer. Mass produced Bud products, which I would rather drink tepid pond water. Parking - unless you arrive very early on a Nationals weekend, you'll be parking far away and walking a long distance. Even handicapped. No shuttles to be found anywhere. Food prices are a little high for burgers, sausages, etc. but what isn't nowadays. (Example $12 for a footlong corn dog. $15 for a ten inch Italian sausage. $8 for beers) As I said earlier, lots of walking. We parked on one side of the track and our seats were on the other side; meaning a long walk all the way around the track. One nice thing is you can walk all thru the pits and meet drivers and crew. Take pictures, etc. Oh, one more gripe was I could not reach anyone at the track via phone or email to ask questions. An 800 number directed me e to be a NASCAR ticket service. They gave me another 800 number which referred me back to the other number. My email I sent was never answered. All in all, not a completely bad experience, but it could be much better. Bring hats and sunscreen! You can park and tailgate if you wish.

It was mostly a big party, but also it was powerful when they took a few moments to recognize the recent disaster in Haiti, along with those who came before them, and those who are representing their roots today in Chicago. Not to mention the... Booths of Caribbean inspired clothes, jewelry, music & more. Jerk Chicken, plantains, sweet potatoes, red beans & rice. AND the dance party disguised as a parade! Great costumes too! The downside? Everyone thought me and my friends were just students from University of Chicago who happened to wander over. But once they found out we came out of genuine interest in their celebration they doubled their welcoming smiles. I'll be back next year!

I was among those who were excited to be introduced to vegan food, especially with a soulful twist. I sampled wings, tacos, and bbq. Unfortunately, I wasn't wowed by anything I tried. I honestly thought that it all tasted similar and had too much sauce. HOWEVER, I will not be deterred and look forward to exposing myself to other vegan options. I also am happy to see these options in our community, bringing people of all ages and races together around their love of good food.

I'm not totally surprised that I haven't written a review for the art fair; the last (and only…read moreother) time I came was circa 2012, probably, and I was on a bit of a Yelp hiatus at the time. My friend and I loaded up our kiddos and headed out to the fair, because every year since the first one I attended I mean to come back yet I don't. The fair takes place near 57th & Kimbark in Hyde Park, and has been there for decades. It's one of the oldest juried fairs in the country, I think, and best of all: It's free. Not even a suggested donation for this fair. That's unusual and especially so for the calibre of artwork you'll find here! This year at the fair I bought a painting of some midcentury looking birds that just makes me smile. There was some photography of the city that was truly breathtaking. Some paintings that caught my eye--but in the middle of searching for a house, I both don't need more to move and don't know what the wall situation will be like. You'll find all mediums here, folk art (the Lakeshore Quilting Guild had a booth), handmade toys, and so on. You'll find some of these artists at other art fairs around the city as well. I don't know if there's a lot of food here, but that's not what I'm coming for and that's not what it's about. There are some restaurants along 57th that you can stop by, or they set up a food court in the elementary school area. Parking is by luck, really. I don't know how but I got a spot feet from where the street closure started, but the surrounding streets have parking (and I think the university surface lots are free at some point on the weekend, so that may be an option too). It's truly worth a visit, even if you're not there to buy but just want to appreciate art and human creativity.

My only caveat is parking but that applies to most Art Fair in the city. It's not just paintings lots of purses, sculptures,clothes , etc, to purchase. In addition it's right there by the University of Chicago. A more gorgeous campus you'll be hard pressed to find in the Midwest. Definitely check the campus out. I don't understand why others would rate this Art Fair less than 5 stars? Did I mention No Cover ?
