BYO... jug?

Some of my favorite girls in the world came to visit so we decided it was time to reunite one of our favorite college traditions, the Wine in a Jug Club. The tradition started back in our sorority house so naturally we were all feeling a little Carlo deprived. When I was thinking of a good BYOB spot, Lucia's immediately came to mind. Only a block away from where I live in Bucktown, Lucia's has amazing Italian food and for a good price. Best part of the night was when we assumed we would be the only ones there with a jug, we poured our glasses under the table - then the waiter informed us that Carlo Rossi jugs are the table wines they keep around for people who forget to bring anything. Just another reason I love this place!


My lovely TCU friends and I at Lucia's. Please come to Chi Town more often!
Our fine Chianti for the evening and my delicious Capellini Alla Checca - basic dish but yet quite amazing.
