Default RIP The Pump Room

One of Chicago's landmark restaurants will close its doors soon per ABC news.

Wow.. The Pump Room. Hard to believe a big Chicago chef like a Rick Bayliss or someone wouldn't step in...

When I would want to take people for 'Old Chicago' dining, the Pump Room and The Cape Cod Room were the spots.

Phil Collins' multi-platinum album, No Jacket Required, was inspired by the fact that they denied him service because he showed up without one.

Classy joint. Was only there once, but I will miss it. First Tavern on the Green, now this...
