Find out why a rare burger at Emerald Loop can be a bloody weekend surprise in my latest Gapers Block: Drive-Thru review, Emerald Loop: It’s Not Easy Being Green. And then someone please find me a weekend hoodie.

Oasis vs. Field's Food Court Smackdown
When you live and work downtown, those lunchtime eateries we all frequent on weekdays merit added importance--and scrutiny. Comparing Oasis middle-eastern takeout with Marshall Field's food court on opposite sides of Wabash, the one spectacularly worth making a special trip for is not the one you might think.
