canadianbeaver Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Hello FOH, Coming to Chicago Nov 18-21 but on Nov 18 I am looking to join a fellow FOH for a smoke during the day? Drop me a line and we can make a plan. CB
KarlJ Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Are you coming into Ohare or Midway? How far do you want to travel? The first place that comes to mind is Belicoso Cigar Lounge 15443 S. 94th. Avenue Orland Park IL 60452 United States If your coming into Midway than Belicoso isn't a bad option. If traffic is good your looking at 30-45 minutes from midway. Hoping some other members can chime in here and we can put something together! -Karl

Bambino68 Posted November 8, 2011 Posted November 8, 2011 Great Weekend to come in.. You should goto NoMI at the Park Hyatt on the 19th. You can see the festival of lights parade. We've done this the last couple of years and its fun. NoMI has a new chef and a completely new menu. Try to go early, 5:30 pm, because the parade starts then. Look me up and I can give you weekend suggestions and meet for a smoke. David

CanuckSARTech Posted November 9, 2011 Posted November 9, 2011 Hey Lisa, Won't be there, but definitely need to meet up with you again with Frank and Stephen and Tom again. We'll have to sort something out for the Toronto folk for the end of the month, once we're all back in the province again.
canadianbeaver Posted November 10, 2011 Author Posted November 10, 2011 Absolutely! Been a blast hanging out on the roof of the Park Hyatt.. ANYTIME GUYS!!! New store opened down the street from me at Yonge north of Lawrence, called La Case de Fuma. Fawzi, the owner is Canadian but has been in the southern USA owning shops and he knows his stuff. Says he will be having some events and the humidor is a beauty.
canadianbeaver Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 Giving this an update bum as this coming Friday is the day I am looking for a smoking date in Chicago? We are staying at the Afiinia downtown. Lisa

canadianbeaver Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 Iwan Ries is a great place to smoke down town. Its legendary. But they are only open till 5PM Fri and Sat Thank you for that info! Very important! CB
Plato Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 Correction. I believe they are open till 10 or 11PM on Saturday. Call and check.
canadianbeaver Posted November 14, 2011 Author Posted November 14, 2011 Correction. I believe they are open till 10 or 11PM on Saturday. Call and check. I have e-mailed, and we will see. Thank you!
ChiTownHuck Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Lisa, The lounge hours at Iwan Ries are til 10 pm. There is a $15 cover, but you can bring in your own cigars without any hassle. Plus they have a small cabinet with a pretty good selection of cigars. They have glassware for any beverage you might bring. There is also a pizza place real near that you can order in. They said an hour, but we got our pie in about 30 minutes. If you haven't had it, you should try Chicago style pizza. I am not sure I can make it out on Friday, but if I can, I will let you know. What time were you looking to meet up? Brian

Plato Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 Hey everyone, Lisa (canadianbeaver) just sent me an email. She is hanging out at Iwan Ries downtown right now. I got stuck at work so I cant make it. If anyone is in the area they should stop by and have a smoke with her. She has her iphone on her. Shoot her an email to [email protected] if you can do it. I wish I could have left work by now Mike
