Gasthaus in the news
August 15th, 2008
The Gasthaus at 15 N. Grove is my favorite Elgin bar. They recently underwent major renovation and scored a sweet article in the Courier as a result. Click here to read it.

Art Show @ Gasthaus.
May 6th, 2008
On April 26th of this year there was a very special art show at the Gasthaus (15 N. Grove Ave.). MY ART WAS IN IT!! This is the first time my art has been in an official “art show.” Here are some of my favorite photos. Click here for a full set. (Thanks for these Erin!)
One of my good friends made this while I was at her apartment, while we both watched My So-Called Life. Now that’s talent!
Like any good art show, there was a good spread of food there.
The first art enthusiasts to arrive.
Mine are the brighter two all the way to the right.
Thanks to Amy of Moon River Products (Click to see other stuff they book at Gasthaus) for putting this together!
All of the work is staying up for at least another week or so–go check it out!

Whatcha doing Saturday night?
March 13th, 2008
One of my friends is having a birthday party at the Dutch Inn (2288 Foothill Rd. Elgin, Illinois 60123 (847) 888-9560). They rarely do shows there so this is a very special occasion. If you’ve never heard of the bands before, search em up on Myspace!
PS, I am going to be unable to make it to the raw foods meet-up, so there will be no report back as promised. Sorry, I know there’s probably 500 disappointed people now.

December 24th, 2007
If you’re wondering what you’re gonna do tomorrow after all that present-opening and food-eating, look no further! There’s a party at the Gasthaus. Um, it’s in Elgin, Illinois, but you planned on spending your Christmas evening here anyway, right?
