  1. A tender look at Cuba in Chaves and Davis' 'Havana Blue'

    Last October, choreographer Frank Chaves and jazz trumpeter Orbert Davis traveled to Cuba to research a suite they hoped to create together. By immersing themselves in the movement and music of the island nation, they sought to bring something of the spirit of the place back home to Chicago.

  6. 2013 outdoor dining and drinking preview

    "Do you remember when it was 80 degrees in March last year?"
    For RedEye

  9. Bar faceoff: High Noon Saloon vs. Ay Chiwowa

    Could it be the Big Star effect? While Paul Kahan's ridiculously popular Wicker Park taco-and-whiskey garage was a novelty when it opened more than three years ago, the idea of the casual Mexican-inspired bar is catching on. River North's <a href=&quot;http://chicago.metromix.com/venues/mmxchi-ay-chiwowa-venue" target="_blank">Ay Chiwowa</a> (311 W. Chicago Ave. 312-643-3200), Rockit Ranch's trendy take on a taqueria, and Wicker Park's <a href="http://chicago.metromix.com/venues/mmxchi-high-noon-saloon-venue" target="_blank">High Noon Saloon</a> (1560 N. Milwaukee Ave. 773-227-9339), a Tex-Mex sports bar, both have opened within the past six weeks with plenty of tortillas and tequila to go around. I visited both newcomers to find out which bar packs the most spice.

  11. Interview: Hulk Hogan's son spins off from the family business

    By 2009, when the shine of VH1's popular reality series &quot;Hogan Knows Best" had worn off, it appeared as if star <strong>Nick Hogan</strong>, son of World Wrestling Federation icon Hulk Hogan, would follow in his bandanna-wearing father's footsteps and pursue a career in professional wrestling. Hogan had the name (though he was born Nick Bollea) and the teachers (he was getting trained by wrestlers Rikishi and Gangrel).
