It was discussed in the thread for the Portillos meet that we could go to old orchard for our next meet, and then go back south south west for a handful so the people down there can make a few. So I figured I'd post up some info on the possible meet next Friday.
Location:
Old Orchard Shopping Mall Food Court
34 Old Orchard Shopping Ctr
Skokie, IL 60077
I figured we could go park in the HUGE parking lot, somewhere under shelter where it is bound to be a tiny bit warmer than being just outside. Then we can walk over and get food from the food court, there are tons of different places to get food from there, with places to eat like Potbelly Sandwich Works, MickyD's, Starbucks, Johnny Rockets, Corner Bakery ETC in the area, maybe not located right in the food court but in the mall, all walking distance from the food court which has a few other restaurants that I cant think of the name of off the top of my head, i think theres a Chinese place, and a pizza place.
To help you find where we're eating ETC here are a few google maps pictures...
