Not only an announcement but an invitation. Chicago seems to have a spectacular restaurant scene due largely to vocal advocates on this site and others. If anyone wants posting status to contribute in a somewhat different way (in addition this and other message boards of course) feel free to visit.
It's a bit different from a standard blog. Ideally there will be many different posters with varying tastes that readers will come to understand individually.
The more the merrier.
cheers.
