EB asked:


My husband and I were watching tv (cant remember what show) and we saw a restaurant where everything you ordered was enormous-cake, martinis, food etc. We are planning a trip to Chicago first weekend of August. Any answers are greatly appreciated.
It wasn’t large portions everything they had was x-large. For instance a slice of cake took up almost a whole dinner plate. The martini glass was about the size of a mixing bowl.

    I think it is Bucca di Beppo because they serve the dishes family style. So when you order one dish, it is big enough for about 5 people or more. The restaurant strives more on quantity rather than quality.

    Big Bar at the Hyatt… I know their drinks are huuuuge! a $25 martina will be enough to get 2 people feeling pretty good.
