Chicago – Nov 23 2005

Kick off the long holiday weekend at a special, private EuroCircle event at The Grotto! For those of you who love our smaller, more intimate events, with great ambience, and even better martinis and food- you can’t miss out on this event!

The Grotto has long been one of our favorite lounges- a great place to relax, have a conversation (w/out yelling!) and enjoy one of their 30 signature martinis!

We’ve got great specials- including a COMPLIMENTARY appetizer buffet (and we’re not talking cheese and crackers, folks, this is good stuff) from 8 to 9, and $5 martinis all night…and of course, a great opportunity to meet and mingle with the best networking group in Chicago- YOU!

***Please note: Due to the limited capacity at the Grotto, and to ensure everyone’s comfort and the exclusivity of this event, we are asking that everyone RSVP at www.eurocircle.com to confirm your attendance. Registered guests will pay $10 admission- otherwise it will be $15 at the door- SO PLEASE RSVP!! 🙂

Thank you to all for your continued support- we look forward to seeing you a week from today!

Chicago – Jan 12 2006

We’re starting off the new year with a brand new venue that we’re super excited about- People Spanish Tapas and World Music Lounge!

People just opened for business and is already creating alot of buzz in the artsy Wicker Park neighborhood. Owner Baris Yuksel (who also happens to be a EuroCircle member!) left the corporate world to realize his dream of opening a cool yet comfortable restaurant/lounge with a strong European vibe- and he has done a great job!

In addition to Spanish tapas, People features over 20 varieties of beer from all over the world, as well as a great selection of wine and home-made red and white wine Sangria.

But here’s the best part- EuroCircle Chicago is hosting a private dinner event at People- which means we have the whole place to ourselves to sample some great food (with a special discounted menu just for us)and including specials on beer and Sangria! People also has these awesome, long, communal tables that are perfect for meeting new friends- as well as sharing a pitcher of Sangria or two…

Since this will be a smaller event due to capacity limitations, it is absolutely required that guests RSVP at www.eurocircle.com if you would like to attend. Please only RSVP if you definitely plan on attending, and please let us know if you must cancel for any reason.
