FROM PERKS

            An Ingenious Way to Pack for Your Next Adventure

Your suitcase just became obsolete. Because all you need now is the Rolo Travel roll-up bag. It combines the powers of a suitcase, a travel organizer
and a closet in one tightly wound package that will go anywhere you take it. Or it takes you.

GO FOR BROKEN

            Too Many Tacos = Great Problem to Have

You’re probably thinking, “Great, another taco restaurant.” But Broken English’s Lincoln Park
location will have a giant blue cow attached to the wall, a 100-seat patio and DIY burritos offered up in an
all-day taco stand. There really is something to be said for giant blue cows.

JUST BEACHY

            A Beer-Filled Faux Beach Party Sounds About Right

With 70-degree days comes the temptation to break out the swimsuit and towel. Resist. Unless you find
yourself at Park & Field’s Oberon Beach Party. Then, by all means, dust off the beach gear. There will
be Oberon slushies, s’mores and you wearing beach gear since we just agreed upon that.

DARK ARTS

            Art Institute’s Late-Night Party Is Back

Every few months, the Art Institute opens its doors after-hours for a booze-forward art party. This time,
they’re offering a late-night glimpse at Go, the collaborative exhibit created by a duo of Art
Institute curators. Which is just a fancy way of saying that your Friday night date plans are set now.

Saturday

DAY OF RECORDING

            It’s Record Store Day. Here’s Why That’s Fun.

Things you expect on Record Store Day: special-edition vinyl, rarely released vinyl, other vinyl. Things you
don’t: a Shuga Records/Lagunitas beer collaboration, a Reckless Records/Revolution beer collaboration and
all-lady DJ sets at 606 Records. We’ll stop saying “records” now.

Sunday

BUTTERED UP

            Come for the Pork, Stay for the Butter Bar

Cochon555, the annual feast wherein five pigs are prepared by five local chefs, is back. And while the usual
feasting will happen at Morgan Manufacturing, there’s also a new ramen station this year, plus something
called a Luxury Butter Bar with truffle butter and foie gras. In summary: butter bar.

Sarah Freeman is often accused of hiding secrets in her hair. She can make any cocktail, as long as that cocktail is a rye Old Fashioned, and has never met a saison she didn’t like.
