BURNING CHOCOLATE



"Or, as Ixion fix'd, the wretch shall feel
The giddy motion of the whirling mill,
In fumes of burning chocolate shall glow,
And tremble at the sea that froths below!" "

Damon, for a interested group that would be coming in from out of state is there parking close by, or is this close to the CTA? I looked at the map but don't know the area that well like I know the North Side. If you have any info or can point me towards someone that does I'd appreciate it.
