Goodbye, Chicagoist and DNAInfo, and does food media have a future? Plus = reviews of Portsmith, Somerset, Obama's convention, and where to eat Thai in Chi.

Sex-in-the-workplace rules claim a Chicago chef, protesters say a new restaurant kills, Todd bids Tru farewell, Nagrant flips for a burger, Kindelsperger has great ramen and Pollack has words of advice.

Michelin's Bibs reveal star spoilers, the Banchets are looking for nominees, how immigrants adapt to Chicago ingredients, and Leon's BBQ is coming back.

Glam at BLVD and Proxi, protests get ugly, the NYT gets Chicago right for once, and thanks Week 1 Patreon supporters
