The Playbook

Cheesy: Mac & Cheese Mania
The Southern's mac & cheese truck is just about ready to roll, and come Super Bowl Sunday they'll be serving four of their new varieties (blue cheese/ bacon/ apple, andouille & pepperjack...) via a $10-try-'em-all buffet, during which they'll also whet whistles with $3 Shiner Bocks and Bulleit bourbon shots, though mixing those with all that mac might be a bit whiskey.
The Southern Mac Truck may make its maiden voyage this week. Follow them on Twitter to find out where & when.

Bright: The Blue Cabinet
From some light-obsessed Michigan folks, TBC's artsy upcycled fixtures include pendant lights crafted from clusters of old mason jars, along with galvanized steel creations like the boxy "Tent" (a four-bulb structure with pipes meeting at the top), and, in a nod to the childhood game, one with five bulbs protruding at right angles to resemble a jack, which should be "off" whenever you do so yourself.

Caffeinated: Caffe Streets
1750 W Division St, btwn Hermitage & Wood; Wicker Park; 773.278.2739
Armed with a DJ booth and a modern industrial vibe (streetlight-esque fixtures, a...modern industrial Synesso espresso machine), CS is focusing on beans from specialty roasters (including a house blend made specially for them by Intelligentsia), and ditching WiFi in an effort to bring back the social coffee house, also a movie where everyone is obsessed with connecting with Friends.

Smoky: Whole Hog Dinners at Lillie's Q
1856 W North Ave, at Wolcott; Bucktown; 773.772.5500

Lillie's is now accepting reservations for whole hog feasts involving a 25lb-plus pig carved table-side by the chef, who'll talk you through porcine anatomy while doling out pulled shoulder, sliced tenderloin, and crispy bark; the smoky juice is reserved as a dipping sauce, and siding it all are hush puppies, collard greens, and fried pickles, who just want to know where the Funyuns are at.
