TWC is a Tourneau store, btw. Swiss Fine Timing is at 645 N. Michigan.
The original suggestion was James & Sons, but this thread is long in the tooth, so when it came to revisiting the topic someone suggested TWC Michigan Ave. Having not really had a preference, upon further consideration I think I do. I have never been to James & Sons, they have free 1 hr. parking (as do most restaurants in the area, such as Goose Island), and they are away from Michigan Avenue, which is tough to navigate around on a normal day and could get worse during NATO. For those reasons, I would prefer James & Sons. But as I said I'll do either. |

James and Son sounds good to me as well. I like the parking situation. I am on board for North. Lets just make sure everyone is aware.

I'll be at J&S on Sunday. I'll see anyone who's going to come when I get there.
To me the TWC locale on the Mag Mile is worthless, as it's Tour-NOOO and the ppl are so unimpressive and unlearned. So, in all frankness, I'll never go there again. |
