New Chicago French Market offers delicious tastes of France, other cultures
2009-12-08 14:26:00 As someone who has worked downtown for years, I'd been waiting with anticipation for the rumored opening of a French Market in the Ogilvie Transportation Center space. I'd seen signs on the outdoor window for ages--so imagine my delight when I heard from a well-informed friend that the Market was FINALLY opening to the public. Those of you who read this blog (as well as www.UrbanTravelGirl.com) know what an obsessive Francophile I am. And since I'm sadly not heading to France this holiday season as I often do, instead trying to do the fiscally responsible thing and stay close to home, news that I soon could shop at an authentic French market just doors from my downtown workplace promised to...
Ooh La La! The Chicago French Market opens in the West Loop
2009-12-03 23:55:00 Frietkoten's Belgian Fries, doubled fried potatoes served in paper cones, are topped with the traditional dollop of mayonnaise and ketchup (Tribune photo by Chris Walker).On today's WGN Evening News at 5 p.m., I'll be checking out the Chicago French Market, the 15,000 square foot mecca of all things fresh food. It's located in the Ogilvie Transportation Center's suburban commuter concourse at 131 N. Clinton St. (it's the building north of the standard food court building). Mayor Daley and Bill Kurtis (his grass-fed beef is for sale at the City Fresh booth) were on hand to kick off the market. More than 25 vendors will be set up selling organic produce, raw food, Wisconsin cheese, fresh fish, rare cured meats, and...
Tried it: Crepes at the Chicago French Market
2009-12-03 18:40:00 The Chicago French Market opened today to bustling crowds. After chatting with a dozen vendors over the past week to prep for our preview story, I didn't waste any time jetting in for a crepe at Flip, one of the only booths with a line around 9 this morning. The sweet crepes were tough to ignore (s'mores for breakfast could be justifiable on certain days) but I steered myself toward the "a.m. wrap" menu and tried the Maple Bites crepe, stuffed with scrambled eggs, sausage, cheddar cheese and a drizzle of maple syrup.The buckwheat crepes (owner Antoine Elie's grandmother's recipe) are lovely, but the packaging needs some work. Each crepe is rolled up burrito-style, wrapped in wax paper and slid...
Google Causes Market Disruption With New Free GPS Product
2009-11-27 13:33:00 Google seems to be getting on the nerves of GPS manufacturers with their latest innovation. Recently in news, Google launched their GPS product as part of the Motorola Droid handset which is now being sold by Verizon Wireless. For now just in USA, but what if they happen to launch it globally to take on all the global GPS players? That would change the entire market for them, wouldn’t it? For now the enhancement to the Android mobile operating system will include a full GPS navigation solution. Every single GPS device manufacturer will be disappointed with Google for this disruption. Year 2009 has already been a groovy year for the Google operating system product, with tons of introductions just in the last few months which WATBlog has nearly covered. Earlier today we saw Google helping out the USA’s bid to entice foreign firms to invest in Iraq by putting up the thousands of the Iraqi National Museum’s image. Before that, we wrote about Airtel’s tie up wi...

Late Harvest Farmers Market for Thanksgiving Dinner
2009-11-19 18:45:00 Indeed it's getting late in the year and most of our Chicago Farmer's Markets are shutting down. But, there's always hope just before Thanksgiving. Most of the Markets have something going on this weekend so those of us foodies who still desire the bounty of fall produce, fresh off the farm, can seek out superior ingredients for the "Feast". Look how beautiful-- Go find one, buy and cook. Thanksgiving is only 7 days away. Please let us know what you found, too.Seven days before Thanksgiving dinner. Get your recipes in order....
Christmas Shopping in the Second-Hand Market: Would You Do It?
2009-11-19 18:27:00 Have you found items at resale -- be it thrift shops, rummage sales, Ebay or other online venues that you gave as gifts? Did you worry about getting "caught"? After all, so many of the gifts I receive these days have the gift receipt taped to the box, but even a pristine gift bought at resale won't have that.
PrivateBancorp pursues offering in spite of market rout
2009-10-28 22:25:00 PrivateBancorp Inc. went ahead Wednesday with a $175-million offering of common stock, despite losing half its market value since last Friday. The Chicago-based bank -- whose stock price has been in free fall since disappointing earnings announced Monday raised questions about whether the lender is growing too fast -- priced the offering at $8.50 per share, just 65% of its tangible book value. By contrast, when PrivateBancorp raised $217 million in May, the price was at 138% of its book value at the time. The good news for existing investors, whose stock is being badly diluted by the new offering: Chicago private-equity firm GTCR Golder Rauner, one of PrivateBancorp's biggest holders, participated in the latest offering, contributing just over $35...
Deal Report: $1 Meals at Boston Market
2009-10-28 04:10:00 Because there was no line at KFC last night, I kind of hoped that not that many people had heard about the Boston Market deal and that it would be dead. I planned to get there around 5 p.m. to beat any rush, but that didn't quite work out and I walked up to the store with my three kids (the hubs was working late) at 6:15 p.m. The line was actually starting to poke right out the door, into the rainy night. And it was not moving. I told the kids we'd have to go home for dinner and they absolutely flipped. Waterworks everywhere. I guess they were really looking forward to eating out.
Don't Forget Free KFC Today -- And a New Offer From Boston Market
2009-10-26 21:52:00 Did you remember that KFC is giving each customer a free piece of grilled chicken today? I'm thinking of heading over there with my girls since the hubs is working late tonight. But if there is a long line I won't bother. It's just a piece of chicken. But Boston Market, not to be outdone, issued a printable coupon today that will get you a whole meal for just $1, today through Sunday. If you are having trouble loading that site, enter your email here to have the coupon emailed to you. That's a Real Chicken Meal with 3 pieces of chicken, mashed potatoes and cornbread.
Coming soon: Brand BBQ Market
2009-10-20 23:50:00 If you're opening a barbecue joint in a town that already has a powerhouse lineup of spots like Smoque, Honky Tonk, Lem's and Honey 1 (just to name some highlights), you'd better do something to set yourself apart. Another house of pulled pork and ribs just ain't gonna cut it in these parts. Enter Brand BBQ Market, opening at the end of the month in the former Hot Spot space in Logan Square. Yes, they have standards like pulled pork. But they also have pulled duck. And pork belly confit. And a secret weapon: something called "burnt ends," deep-fried double-smoked brisket fat. Add seven different sauces, including a brandy-cherry sauce with a hint of porcini, and we're officially intrigued. Brand BBQ Market is aiming to open...
Chicago home market to remain stable
2009-10-20 18:29:00 The massive 25% drop in home prices is about to level off, at least in Chicago, according to CNNmoney.com's article today. While the report indicates that several major metro areas are still losing steam in the housing market, Chicago will lose just 4.1 percent of home values over the next 12 months and gain .7 percent in 2010. And it looks like Chicago is the biggest city that won't be falling. New York and Los Angeles are still posting double-digit losses over the next year. Less than a percent gain in home price is really nothing to write home about, but at least we know it will still be a good time to invest for another year or two. Also,...

Fry shack among vendors joining Chicago French Market
2009-10-16 23:51:00 The Chicago French Market has signed 16 more vendors to the year-round indoor market scheduled to open in mid-November. A Belgian fry shack, a cured meats seller and a raw-foods restaurant are among the sellers that will be part of a 15,000-square-foot European-style market connected to the Ogilvie Transportation Center. The Chicago French Market is part of the MetraMarket concept, a 100,000-square-foot development bounded by Lake, Canal, Washington and Clinton streets.

Kids Eat Free at Steak N Shake and Boston Market
2009-10-11 22:08:00 At Boston Market, kids eat free through Oct. 31. That means up to two kids meals per adult purchase of $6 or more. Kids must be present. At Steak N Shake, kids can eat free on Saturdays and Sundays, but it's just one kids plate per $8 spent, dine in only. What's your favorite kids eat free deal in the Chicago area?...

Edmonton Real Estate Market
2009-09-24 01:45:00 The market in Edmonton is finally balanced again. Although prices are a little lower, less than 1%, than what we saw in August last year."Although sales numbers cooled a bit after record sales in June and July, we are still experiencing the strength of the market in Edmonton," said Charlie Ponde, president of the Realtors Association of Edmonton.June and July saw sales rise 28% over the same period one year before; low interest rates and great deals were probably behind the jump in activity. Seasonality could be in effect as well were winter saw a near freeze. The market picked up in the warmer weather.Alberta's economy will make a comeback in 2010--strong enough to contribute to the national recovery, yet modest enough so that we don't see the problems associated with the break neck growth we saw in the mid 2000s.

Hills at Prestonwood and Indian Creek Real Estate Market Conditions
2009-09-19 18:28:00 Hills at Prestonwood - Indian Creek Real Estate Update These days you need to know the numbers before you buy or sell and it's good to take a look at the current trends by neighborhood. You can see the Hills at Prestonwood and Indian Creek sales are better than the spring season 9 vs 11. The median sales price has come down considerably due to the lower end market being much more active, under 500K due to scarcity of jumbo loan financing. 417K is the threshed before you jump into jumbo lending. The sale to list price is 94.68% which indicates some properties might be priced too high in the beginning because sellers are making concessions. As far as inventory goes almost 70% of the homes are selling within 90 days. You can bet the other 30% are high end properties over 600K. Pending properties has picked up (waiting to close). If you have an opening price point home, chances are you have a great chance of selling it within 30 days and it looks li...

Windhaven Real Estate Market Conditions
2009-09-18 00:17:00 Windhaven Market Conditions It's no secret that inventory is low in some West Plano neighborhoods. So the good houses go quick, meaning updated and nothing to do unless you have a buyer that wants a project. The biggest shout out is that around 70% of the listings in Windhaven sell within 60 days and 92% sell in 90 days, that's good news for sellers. And for home buyers: it's a great location in the Willow Bend area. Also you can see the sale to list price is 100% for homes on the market for over 120 days...and that's because the home was overpriced in the first place and by the time price reductions are taken, slowly but surely, the price gets low enough for a buyer to buy for the condition of the home. It's a painful journey.... [where:75093, Windhaven Real Estate, Market Update]

Willow Bend Real Estate Market Conditions
2009-09-16 22:40:00 Current Market Conditions for Willow Bend If you want to know the truth about real estate you really need to drill down to each sub division to see what's really going on. General information is good but rarely depends on your exact location. The report below is just for Willow Bend, a glimpse into this area. The results go back to September of last year when the bottom fell out and things got quieter. The current last 3 months of sales is better than the prior, much better. The absorption rate is important because it tells you how deep the inventory is. Now 7.67 months supply is not ideal but financing issues on jumbo loans have a great deal to do with that. Median prices have adjusted considerably and you do have to figure in a few foreclosures for that. Days on market are almost 50% lower than a year ago, a good sign. And sale to list price is better also at 96.48%. As a buyer you can see that activity has picked up and going the right ...

Market Tangos Sideway
2009-09-15 16:22:00 Market continues to tango sideway with the exception of Property sector still as weak. The morning gap up couldn't sustain and there was no catalyst to spark the sell-off as yet. I couldn't believe my luck when i saw that HSI will resume trading only in the afternoon. Indeed it is a grim reminder to myself to tone down and not be too agressive in trading. Why no typhoon recently and so coincident ah? I opened a position and there u go, HSI morning session closed.Anyway i am sticking to my short for now as 21k looks to be selling off everytime we trade there. Is it luring shortists? ot is it ready to kill longists? Market seems to be waiting for some news.. the better than expected US retail sales couldn't spark a rally... i need a set of bad jobs data for now on Thursday.. :PStraitsAsia: MTL level coming up... my idea is to fade the breakout. If wrong, wait for a natural reaction before somersault to long. This is because, after 6 months of non stop rally, market should take...

New Home Market “Stabilizing”? Maracay Homes Doesn’t Thin
2009-09-10 15:39:00 You can watch the news to find out how the new home sale market is "stabilizing" and homebuilder sentiment is "improving", or you can do like I do and take a peek into L’s junk mail for a more realistic view of where builders think the market is headed: [Thanks L- it's great to have you back!] When the market was hot, the homebuilders wouldn’t give agents the time of day. When the market cooled and builders were stuck with bloated inventories, they started offering higher commissions, gas cards and other perks. Guess which mode Maracay is in?
