I Saw This Image...

tkkatherineblog: “3 Arts Cafe at Restoration Hardware Inst @jessmrgn98 ”

and I knew I had to go there,
whereever it is in the world.

it's in Chicago, the frozen land of Chicago, 
the 3 Arts Club Cafe at Restoration Hardware.

Hardware?
not on your life

 

Wine Bar 2


kinda makes one swoon to be there, doesn't it?
I love Chicago and I've been there many times when it was BLIZZARD CONDITIONS,
& I still got out there in my layer upon layer of clothing and walked to the Chicago Institute of Art,
and thought I was having a wonderful time.
to me, the city is beautiful!
I think because it's on the lake and you can see that water from almost everywhere.

we have a beautiful city here in Houston, but we are 50 miles inland, though we have
a huge port (which was man-made, btw), so there is no water view anywhere.

and water views are MY thing!


Exterior


anyway, the restaurant serves haute "simple" food 
with a lavish flourish.
so American, isn't it?

      Libby, WE can go together !!! Closer than Italy and a lot easier to get to. We have an amazing RH store, the original concept store for all the new ones, but NO restaurant. I'm drooling over this place. Don't even care what the food tastes like. It's ALL in the presentation for me. Sending love, darling friend....

      Hey International People, thanks for stopping in. Chicago next stop, right after winter's over, that is. Beautiful place isn't it. And, we have an amazing RH store in Houston but NO restaurant either.

Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
