Jordan's back in the CHI, Baby!!!

COMMERCIAL IMAGE - In this photograph taken by AP Images for Michael Jordan's Steak House, Laurence Geller, president and CEO of Strategic Hotels and Resorts, and Michael Jordan, mark the official opening of Michael Jordan's Steak House Chicago with a ribbon cutting at the grand opening celebration, in Chicago, Thursday, Sept. 22, 2011. The new restaurant is located in the InterContinental Chicago, a Strategic Hotels and Resorts property.

Hello Hon-Tey's!


For those of you that don't know me wouldn't have known that I am a "Foodie".  I go out of my way to eat at various restaurants in the city and elsewhere. My most recent Foodie Adventure has included Michael Jordan's Steak House in which I had the opportunity to have lunch with a friend of mine.  Upon my arrival I was surprised to see that no in your face Bulls or sports paraphernalia was strategically placed.  Its located inside the Intercontinental Hotel which is already a "shi shi poo poo" establishment on its on. However, when the #23 was placed, it was very subtle and tastefully done.

This is NOT your go to spot after the game with your boys, but it is your go to spot for a first date, night out with the Mrs., or just a classy sit down dinner on any given day or night. I had the Crispy Chicken and Waffles (I know, typical, right!?), which was GREAT!  I later washed it down with the Dancer's Delight which almost made me reinvent the When Harry Met Sally deli scene. YES!  It was that good!   


All in all if I was I were to rate this restaurant on ambiance I would give it an 8, and food it gets a 9.  Ciao Bella, Hon-Tey's!  Check it out, tell em Yo Nikki sent ya!

For MEN ONLY...if you dare!

Hello Hon-Tey's!
Currently on my radar of fashion must have's I ran across a growing trend among men.  Upon initial introduction I was taken back quit a bit...but I quickly regained my composure and immediately thought of David Bowie and his ability to don womens clothing while still maintaining his manly edge.  Take a look at a couple of the new trends that are gracing the runways of some of the most desired designers in the industry.  Women, do you think your man can pull this off?  Men, can you see yourself carrying a "murse" with your favorite sports team logo?

Real Life Superheroes...might be in your city!




Hello Hon--Tey's!


As always I keep you updated on my radar of things that interest me.  Today it is a documentary on Real Life Super Heroes.  Yeah, you read right.  Currently, on HBO there is a show that follows everyday people who either moonlight or are full time Superheroes!  They are men and women who range in age from 21 to 65 who sole purpose is to go out help the less fortunate, scope out and prevent crimes from occurring or set up "bait" operations so a crime can happen...then they can ZOOM IN and stop it.


These individuals are not trained or hired by your local police department.  They are just regular people who like the idea of being Real Life Superheroes!  They are people who see society as troubled and have a dislike for law enforcement. Unlike the characters from your childhood comic...these Superheroes don't have names that you would be familiar with at all. Now with no further introduction I bring to you Real Life Superheroes!!!!!

BasketCASE Wives of LA....Check out the cast!

Hello Hon-Tey's

If your anything like me you were glued to the Tom Foolery that took place on Monday night during the Basketball Wives Reunion Show.  As usual, Tami snapped the F*%# Out. Suzie talked too much. Evelyn tried to cover and defend the fact that she is a lonely gold digger. Jennifer looked liked everything she said was "scripted".  Meeka spoke in circles and confused us all. Royce snapping was alittle too "over the top". And last but not least Shaunie sat back, gave vague answers while watching everything unfold.


However, when you thought the qualifications to become a "Basketball Wife/Girlfriend" couldn't get more ghetto...we were shown the previews and cast for the upcoming season - which includes the following:

Gloria Govan,, fiancee of LA's Matt Barnes
Laura Govan, alleged jump-off of Shaq O' Neal 
Kimsha Artest, "self described" partner of Ron Artest
Imani Showalter, ex-fiancee of Stephan Jackson
Draya Michele, wife of ummmm "groupie"


Malaysia Pargo, wife of Jannero Pargo

Jackie Christie , wife of Doug Christie

Well, now you have it Hon-Tey's, the line up for the new bad girls of Monday night television.  Its a shame how people (including myself) are captivated by such "buffoonery" in this day in age.  Oh well, can't knock the next man or woman's hustle.

My Favorite Season is Approaching...FALL!

Hello Hon-Tey's!


This summer has been awesome for me.  I've never partied and chilled so hard in my life.  However, summertime in the Chi must come to an end - and what better way to bring it to an end than with my personal favorite COLORFUL and GRAPHIC TIGHTS! 


I've always been a fan of the upcoming Fall season, mainly because I love turtlenecks, sweaters, blazers, big comfy coats and last but not least those HAWT COLORFUL TIGHTS, Hon-Tey!  


My personal preference is to pair them with short skirts or shorts with a matching shoe or contrasting color shoe.  I LUV the fact how they can make anyone look long and lean, especially when paired with a matching shoe. 


However, if your as bold and daring as the tights themselves, you can pair them with absolutely ANYTHING.

   

MY PERSONAL FAV!!







So for all my fellow Fashionistas I'll be looking forward to seeing you strut your stuff this Fall...Ciao Bella!

Mr. Rohan Marley...You are NOT the father!

Hello Hon-Tey's!



Currently on my radar is the announcement from Lauren Hill that Rohan Marley is NOT the father of her newborn son.  So ummmm...who the hell is?  As we all know, Lauren has 5 children my Mr. Marley and last month Rohan made it clear that the unborn child of Lauren's was not his.  I took this personal, until this statement was released today by Ms. Hill.
The Kids
"Mr. Marley and I have a long and complex history and which MANY inaccuracies have been reported since the beginning.  To speculate without the facts can only cause people to form WRONG conclusions.  We both value privacy and for that reason defend and preserve our right to it.  Contrary to the numerous reports, Mr. Marley did not abandon me while pregnant with his child.  We have had long periods of separation over the years but our 5 children remain a joy to both of us.  Thank you for your concern and I appreciate all of the well wishes regarding the birth of my new son."


Until next time,
Ms. Hill

There you have it, straight from the horses month.  He is not the father Hon-Tey!  I wonder did she run around the house and collapse in the fetal position after she got the results????

Jesse James and Kat Von D Split!


Hello Hon-Tey's!


Talk about a joke of a human being!  Jesse James cheated on Sandra Bullock with some tattooed brazen skank...then tells the world of his inseparable love for Kat Von D.  All this happens within less than a year after his infidelity scandal.  Now Mr. James is calling it quits and calling the engagement off with Kat due to distance problems.
Jesse and Mistress Michelle McGee
Please you knew she lived in LA when you proposed...and you lived in Texas with your 3 kids!  Dude, really?  How about you just chill for a minute and regroup.  Jesse has being doing so much that it makes even me wipe the sweat from my own brow.  I wonder what is Sandra Bullock thinking about all this?  I bet her and her little adopted Cajun Solider are sitting back cracking crawfish and laughing at his dumb azz!
