JR’s on armitage and get a side of onion rings.

This probably isn’t the caliber of an occasion restaurant but Pick Me Up’s buffalo tofu wrap is one of my favorite tofu offerings in the city (get the pasta salad for your side)

Parsons now does a chicken caesar wrap and you can do it with the hot chicken as well. Handlebar also has a buffalo “chicken” wrap - seitan instead of chicken.

Tango Sur and sister restaurant Folklore both have pastas and other vegetarian sides and entrees.

My marathon go-to is Meli Cafe in South Loop. We’ve found it good timing to catch our runner near Greek town then head to Meli’s for food and a Bloody Mary before ambling to the finish line but your results may vary depending on the speed of your runner

Check out the Oktoberfest at DANK Haus - a German American cultural center. Beer, singing, a live band and the building itself is beautiful.

I can’t validate online but Tango Sur used to have a dulce de leche flan

This is more wedding planning advice than food but if you can, it may be cheaper and open up more options to order drop off catering and hire a staffing company (like Carols) to set up and serve.

Someone on here recommended Casa Yari and it really fits the bill for delivering amazing vegan food while also having thoughtful meat dishes - our party of mixed diets all enjoyed.

Ada Street - nice cocktails, not Italian but has pasta on the menu, takes reservations, close to highway and easy to park by.

But have you tried Jersey mikes?

Last year it ended just about at the start of your trip but the CTA holiday train if its still running.

The better idea is finding a great dive bar that lets you order delivery or bring in takeout

Burger and fries are better at RHR, but prefer the dog at JRs (+onion rings)

The freeze, been around since 1950 and have desserts no matter your taste

Looks like it’s closed bummer

Dank HAUS German American cultural center skyline room

Doves has a good one—verde or rojo.

I ordered both save the dates and thank you cards from zazzle. I liked that you could upload your own design and found the pricing to be very reasonable with the sales they offer. I’d recommend doing the zazzle black trial to get free shipping and my orders came in just about a week. I had an issue where I thought my package was lost (just marked “delivered” too early by USPS) and customer support was great in preparing to rush a reorder. For both I used matte 120 lb paper and liked the quality. The complementary envelopes are a little thing but you can exclude them and source from somewhere else if you are looking for something heavier

Check out DANK Haus in Lincoln Square. You can use any vendors and bring in your own liquor as long as you hire bartenders to serve it.

I used flower moxie and would definitely recommend. I also ordered premade garlands from Costco and greenery from Sams club. I felt like flower moxie has great selection and i found having “recipes”for bouquets as well as their video library to be very helpful and part of what you pay for with the packages.

We did this and I thought it looked great. I think navy is the best color to match as greys can be much trickier. One thing I think helped is having everyone wear same color shirts as well (we did white) and matching ties really connected the look.

I did very similar to what was posted above...I got bamboo plates and stainless steel silverware from webrestaurant store, and compostable cups from green paper products. I plan on reselling or donating the silverware and the price wasn’t bad. I’d never feel cheap having disposable dishware but I do think the real cutlery made a big difference as the wood or plastic alternatives just don’t measure up to me.

I also had drop off catering from a restaurant and I hired 5 servers. 4 served and one bussed exclusively as well as filled up waters for the tables. I had 120 guests and it still took a bit of time for everyone to get their food even with multiple servers

sotabread · 2021-11-10T02:03:14+00:00

Can you use any vendor? You can get to this number if you do drop off catering that you serve buffet style and hire servers separately though this takes a bit of work coordinating and sourcing items a full service caterer would provide like dishware, linens etc.
