In Chicago, where to grub before you club

nightclubIf you're heading out to shake and shimmy all night at a club, you definitely want to have some good food before you go so you don't run out of steam before Last Call. The Chicago Tribune has listed a few places that they recommend if the dancing destination is either Continental or Darkroom, two clubs that are home to deejay Jesse De La Pena:

Feed - It's "a kitschy slice of the South, complete with traditional country music playing in the background, chicken paraphernalia and a limited menu that includes superb sides." 2803 W. Chicago Ave., (773) 489-4600

Humboldt Pie Cafe - It's got a diner menu, and even better, it's BYOB, so you can drink what you want. 1001 N. California Ave., (773) 342-4743

Maiz - Mexican. 1041 N. California Ave., (773) 276-3149.

A Tavola - "Trust us, order the gnocchi. And then go dance it off." 2148 W. Chicago Ave. (773) 276-7567.

Now I wish we had a list like this for Los Angeles.

Maiz is thoroughly mediocre, which is sad, since the chef's previous place was reportedly very good. It's majorly overpriced for a place in its class (slightly more classy than a taqueria), and the food isn't as good as it should be. Even though the tortillas are handmade, they aren't particularly good. For the same price you could go to the new place Sol de Mexico and have food 10x better.
