Who's Who Chicago: Centerstage People
Shelly Burton
In my opinion, the best places to hang are the ones you never hear about - the places that are off the beaten path or places that are more about character and less about flash - Places like Hungry Brain or L & L tavern or Leos Lunchroom. You can still find places like these if you know where to look. A great way for me to rave about the places I love and rant about the ones I don't is to write about it here at Centerstage. Occasionally I may be blown away by a high profile establishment or even a trendy one, but it's the hidden gem that never seems to let me down.
