I love Outback Steakhouse. Yes, it is a chain. Yes, its menu is the same from state to state. What makes this place different from so many other is that sameness means quality and that you can find great food no matter where you are.
For my family, this restaurant located in suburban Skokie is our traditional Outback to go to. It can get insanely crowded. My tip? The bar area is first-come/first-serve. So, put your name in for a table and then hang out near the bar area. When someone leaves, jump into the booth, knocking over elderly women and small children if necessary, and get a seat. You'll probably get one there before your name is called from the list.
Recently Outback took off may favorite dish from their menu; the Outback Rack. However, they have a great pork chop that is almost as good and worth going back for. Their Bloomin' Onion is essentially nothing but bad for your heart and cholesterol, but if you are going to Outback to be weight conscious you are in the wrong place.
Service is always pleasant and the atmosphere is always laid-back. We get and give gift certificates to this place for holiday gifts and not one has ever not been used. Great place, great food, decent prices. It's a winner.

I've used 4 movers in the past 5 years, and Golan is BY FAR the best. They called before they came, arrived when they said they would, and were very polite and professional. Like most movers, they charge by the hour, but they are EXTREMELY FAST at loading up the moving truck. Before I could blink my eyes, half of my furniture was already loaded. They are very very fast. They are also extremely careful with my furniture, and this is the first time that nothing was broken. In the past, movers have broken things like a mirror or a chair, but Golan did not break a thing. They had to carry my heavy furniture up three flights of stairs, and they never complained once. I asked them if they wanted to stop the clock and take a break, but they said no. They are also very reasonably priced. They charge for 3 guys what other places charge for 2 guys. Overall, they were very professional, polite, and fast. They are the best movers I've ever had.
Pros: Reasonably priced, FAST, professional, polite, careful with furniture

Old Orchard is a nice place to people watch. Take your lunch in their food court and watch all the housewives with their newborns, old people out for a stroll, etc, etc. The only other mall of its kind is Oak brook shopping center, the open air design has a certain appeal, although it can be quite a hike from one end to the other. Prices seem to be higher than normal, but considering the area its located that seems expected.

My kids love this place. They think it has the best grilled cheese, very simple but they love it. You can also order a banana (not on menu) if they are in stock as a better choice of side than fries. My husband loves their ribs and cheese burgers. I LOVE their gyros, they are huge, bring an appetite. Sides are family style, not meant for one person. I love great salads, and for me this is not the place to go for that, they know their meat and do it well. Even there tilapia sandwich is good. We are there at least once a week, a great choice!

They have a great selection of candy stores in bulk, between jelly belly's carob and chocolate covered nuts, raisins and mixes and lots more.
They have a section where you can grind your own nut butters and a deli section where you can have meats and cheese sliced to order or buy larger amounts of cheese. I really like their selection of wisconsin cheeses. The Colby and Munster are excellnt.
This is a nice store if you like these kind of items.

They are a large, well-stocked store. They are a good source for music, electronics, media, computers and peripherals and supplies. I've bought most of those items there at one time or anothe, most recently an external CDRW deck, with CDR media.
The traffic pattern in that particular mall is not great, hovever parking is usually available.
This is among the better Best Buy stores.
