On March 10, 2010 my good friend Rodrick Markus & I have teamed up to create an exciting event. This is the first time I’ve ever offered a complete tasting of the David Burkes Primehouse Dry Aged Steaks ranging from 28 days up to 75 days. If you dont know Rod, you deffinately need to come meet him because he is the guru of all things tea, his collection of rare teas is the best in the country! Cave aged pu-erh teas are absoutly amazing, there are so many great teas to enjoy and currently we are putting the fininshing touches on the tea cocktails and wines for the evening. The menu is listed below, it is all inclusive for 79 dollars, please call 312-660-6000 to make your reservation, remember space is limited. http://chicago.metromix.com/restaurants/article/tea-it-up/1796655/content
