AROUND TOWN<br />

with BILLY DEC<br />

Billy Dec is an Emmy<br />

winning TV personality and<br />

RESTAURATEUR in CHICAGO.<br />

Pet friendly restaurants and patios are such a wonderful way for animal lovers to enjoy the beautiful,<br />

albeit brief, spring and summer months of Chicago with their furry BFFs. Better yet, restaurants, salons<br />

and stores for pets only are a fun and special way to celebrate your canine and feline companions!<br />

Here are a couple of my favorites…<br />

Grab the leash<br />

let’s go!<br />

Who better to give us the scoop on the city’s best<br />

places to lounge and linger with Spot, than Chicago’s<br />

very own Billy Dec.<br />

Rockit Burger Bar<br />

3700 N. Clark<br />

Rockit Burger Bar is steps away<br />

from Wrigley Field, boasts the<br />

biggest patio in Wrigleyville<br />

(more room for your pooches to<br />

sniff and make new friends) and<br />

is home to the national favorite<br />

Mac & Cheese Attack (yes, the<br />

buns are made out of fried mac<br />

& cheese!)<br />

What’s better than shopping WITH<br />

YOUR PET?!? Shops at Northbridge<br />

For Dog’s Sake<br />

1757 N. Kimball<br />

207 W. Superior<br />

This doggy café does not serve<br />

people food, surprise! They stick<br />

to all natural products in the<br />

theory that nature is the only<br />

perfect system and that there is<br />

no substitute for fresh, wholesome<br />

food, clean water, exercise, fresh<br />

air and avoidance of chemicals and<br />

drugs. You can’t argue that.<br />
