"nightclubs" news and stories

If 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.
