Wings from a chinese place? Do you get a hamburger from Giordanos as well? :D


Don't knock it til you've tried it. Great Seas wings are fantastic. Never even bothered to try the other stuff, there's better places for other Chinese dishes from what I've heard from people that have tried em there. The same family owns Take Me Out, which serves the same wings (and only a few other things) and won Best Exotic Wing at the Chicago Wingfest in 2010.


They have good Mongolian beef and fried rice too.

Also, why is this on the front page again?

Normally I would not address this here. And in so doing I will probably regret. But this is a special case and I would never want the idea that his account is unwanted to take root. That is coming from me because I dont want to speak for anybody else, though I can tell you I know of no contradiction.

What ultimately occurred with this account is something that was contained in a private setting and was nothing the Bulls mod staff had advocated for. And nothing prohibits that account from being reactivated that I have been made aware of. He has a lot of fans out there and on the mod staff and you deserve to have the real deal on that without confusion.

It's actually Chinese/Korean

The wings are the only thing keeping it in buisness.

Back when I was a kid there wasn't half the people there.
Then all the cool kids and their yelp review brought it attention and it's always packed now. Can't sit down and eat. Just take out.

They have a co-restuarant down in pilsen too.

Church's Chicken on Madison and Pulaski is good. Ordered some last week after shopping at Tops & Bottoms. I'd recommend the place.

Why Church's? If you need quick chicken go to Popeyes, KFC, or even Brown's. I've had to many bad experiences with church's.

The ambiguity is still ambiguous.


Crap, I didn't mean for this to jump up on the front page.

This September I'm going for vacations to the USA. I will be for a few days in Chicago. I want to see the WNBA game. I see that there is a game on Semptember 11th - Phoenix @ Chicago.

How can I get to the Chicago Sky stadium ? It is possible to get there by metro ? During my stay in Chicago I will be living in the Lincoln Park.

Thank you :)

I know the Blue Line train goes out to Rosemont (where the Sky play.) You should look online for specific instructions.

Thanks. I checked it. Rosemont station is around 1,5 mile from Sky arena. I wonder if there's any bus from Rosemont station to Sky arena, but I can't find any information.

I've found the information:

Route 222 Allstate Arena Express is a very safe and convenient way to get to Allstate Arena. Passengers take an express ride from the CTA's Rosemont Station (for a connection to the CTA O'Hare Blue Line) direct to Allstate Arena.
The bus will depart Rosemont CTA beginning 1 hour before start of event, with additional trips leaving every 20 minutes. The last bus leaves at the start time of the event.

Note: A parking fee is charged at the Rosemont CTA station.

Return service to the Rosemont CTA Blue Line station departs the Allstate Arena 20 minutes after the event concludes. Multiple buses are available to accommodate all riders
