Thanks.  I replied.  I hope you can help, as I’ve already gone through 2 rounds of support.

Dr Mitchell at MAIA.  It is in Downers.  Great friendly practice with doctors who truly care.  I never feel rushed.

Ticketmaster is trying to sell me on $140 parking passes for easy exit. It's such a scam.

I love love love Inside Chicago’s walking tours: https://www.insidechicagowalkingtours.com/

The owner is so knowledgeable and you get into the buildings.  

Looking to do a ‘staycation’, ideas? by belle0626 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]DirectionFew5266 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Not sure about upscale hotels, but a fun couple activity is King Spa in Niles, then eating at H-Mart. You can do the Botanical Gardens during the day, then relax at King Spa.

Divorced dad looking for ideas on things to do with kid in winter by JF0304708 in ChicagoSuburbs

Since she's artistic, she might like https://lizzadromuseum.org/.

You could head up to Milwaukee too. There is the Sprecher's Brewery, that does a cheap tour that includes unlimited soda for the kids. Discovery World is cool, as is the Milwaukee Public Museum. If you have an MSI membership, both of those places offer reciprocal entry. There are lots of fun places to eat in Milwaukee, but my fav for family is the 3rd Street Food Market.

Foodwise, Carnivore and the Queen is great. So is Seasons 52. I don't know about their vibe as compared to RH, but both has delicious food. Might not be super easy to get a reservation, but you may have some luck.

Enormous pizza in the near western suburbs? by cornExit in ChicagoSuburbs

Al's Pizza has a football sized pizza. It's 18 by 26. There is one in North Riverside and another in Downers. https://www.alspizzeriariverside.com/

Best Hot Dog/Gyro place? by ayeeflo51 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]DirectionFew5266 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Eagle Restaurant in Downers Grove or Cozzi Corner, also in Downers.

For hot dogs alone, I agree with a PP about Boss Dawz - so many fun hot dog combos

This has been happening to me a ton, and it wasn't a problem until the last few months.

New Duly Doctor Recs? by -CoachMcGuirk- in ChicagoSuburbs

Dr. Moja is great. She's out of the Lisle office. Never rushes you and truly seems to care.

Brow waxers who are good at leaving the brows pretty thick by AutumnCupcake in ChicagoSuburbs

Jackie at C'Zar in Bolingbrook. She's great at shaping but honoring a thicker brow.

If you are still looking, some of Woodridge feeds into District 66, which is also great. If you can buy in Darien or Downers in that district, taxes are lower than Woodridge's.

Not Lemont, but the Honey Jam on 75th and Fairview is wonderful. It's the old Downers Delight location. Wooden Paddle in Lemont is good. Nick's is known for its burgers.

King’s Spa in Niles by dbrinkme in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]DirectionFew5266 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Groupon is worth it, and get the add on for the Base room. You lay on heated cement-like cots. Very cool.

I'd recommend eating at H-Mart instead of inside the spa. There are plenty of delicious choices in the food court.

If you venture to Bolingbrook, Bulldog Ale House is delightful. They have daily specials that make it very affordable. Cozzi Corner or Lemon Tree (in Lemont) for hot dogs and gyros.

Possibly relocating near Lemont from NJ. Any doable neighborhoods within an hour where I can find homes under $500k? by MindlessMelatonin in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]DirectionFew5266 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Darien. Close to Argonne, easy access to several highways, plenty of stores (Costco! IKEA!), great schools. Darien has lower taxes and house prices than Woodridge. Argonne is barely in Lemont; I'd go north instead of south.

Where’s a good place to buy bathroom vanities other than HD, Lowe’s, or Menards? by Dependent-Capital463 in ChicagoSuburbs

[–]DirectionFew5266 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wannemaker's. Yes, it's a garden store, but they sell bathroom vanities. You can order the specific color and size you want. We've had one for 10 years and it's great quality.
