Clued In

The Underground Opens

The Game: Get a Clue
The Contestant: You
The Characters: Mr. Billy Dec, Mr. Arturo Gomez, Mr. Brad Young (Le Passage, Rockit Bar
& Grill)
The Setup: It’s nighttime in Chicago. Somewhere, beneath the streets, a woman screams. Can you find her? And more importantly, can you find The Underground, Chicago’s new on-the-down-low nightclub?

When, where, and how to get in? You get three guesses.

Mr. Dec in the bar with the martini glass shard?
Wrong.
Mr. Gomez in the lounge with the broken stiletto?
Nope.
Mr. Young in the booth with the money clip?
Bingo. You’re in.

Designed to look like a bomb shelter, The Underground provides an escape from the chaos of everyday life. The low-key vibe, spy-themed drinks (Espionage, 007), and twists on comfort food (mini Kobe beef burgers and strawberry “Pop-Tarts”) promise to keep things intriguing.

Is the secret safe with you?

The Underground, 56 West Illinois Street, at Dearborn Street (number available online at theundergroundchicago.com).
