    In deciding a venue for February’s Evanston Lunch Group™, we opted to go with one that was offering deals under the North Shore Restaurant Month program. The participants were listed alphabetically. Having a short attention span, I only got as far as the Bs.

    Thus, we’ll be meeting at Blue Horse Tavern. It’s the latest offering from the group that also runs Lulu’s Dim Sum and Then Some, Taco Diablo, and Five and Dime — all fun joints, not necessarily best in class, but reliably competent.

    Street parking is usually not too tough. Worst case, Evanston’s large Sherman Plaza parking garage (821 Davis) is about 2 1/2 blocks away.

    So, join the group for good pub food at Blue Horse Tavern Monday February 13 @ 12:30 pm. As part of restaurant month, the bill will be 15% off. Plus, newbies will get their own free Evanston Lunch Group™ membership cards!

    Blue Horse Tavern
    1026 Davis St.
    Evanston, IL 60201

    PSA = the list of restaurants that's on the website is from 2022. The 2023 list will be posted in late January. https://www.visitchicagonorthshore.com/ ... urantMonth

    I like them; I've been going to Lulu's for years, and have enjoyed Five & Dime several times since our LTH lunch on the patio there in June 2021, our first get-together after the start of the pandemic. Also note that these three restaurants are all located at the same location - I'm guessing one kitchen for all three - and there is some overlap among their menus.

    Evanston is strict in enforcing parking regulations. There is metered parking (via pay boxes) on Davis and north of there; there is free two-hour parking south of Davis on Oak and on Grove (two sides of the block containing Blue Horse Tavern).

    My Mom: Cathy
    My best friend growing up: Cathy (a rare true Cathy, not a Catherine or Kathleen)
    Cousin: Cathy
    Third grade there were five Cathys in the class.
    Circle of friends today: at least three Cathy and a Kathy
    My nieces informed many of their friends have an Aunt Cathy.

    I have a true Kathy! (Although she prefers the term "a real Kathy".)
