Jersey Mike's Opening Today; Mercat Celebrates 5 Years

Jersey Mikes @ 26 E. Roosevelt
Lots of good South Loop information recently on the blog Eater Chicago.  Last week, they had two updates:
Jersey Mike's is opening their fifth city location on February 27 at 26 E. Roosevelt. On that day, donate $1 to South Loop Elementary School or Jones College Prep and receive a sub.
Try out a new spot and support some local schools.  Sounds good to us.

In other news, Mercat a la Planxa (638 S. Michigan), the well regarded tapas restaurant in the Blackstone Hotel is celebrating:
Five is the lucky number for Mercat a la Planxa. On March 5 they're celebrating their fifth anniversary with five different pig tasting stations paired with 5 Rabbit brews around the multi-tiered space for $55 a head. Starting at 7 p.m. (6 p.m. V.I.P.), it culminates with a birthday cake celebration at 9 p.m.
(Hat tip: AR!)

Jersey Mikes - you have to get a card from SL school or Jones to get a sub for $1. I wasted my time going over there.

Really? You cheap idiots. Try a sandwich there and oat for it. Support a new business and quit crying about the miscommunication. Head over to Costco for their free samples. Ugh

Not sure where you work, but miscommunication is not ok. I happily ordered and paid for a sandwich, but did not want others going there under false pretenses on a day that had bad weather.

Very good. I happily put a few dollars in the school donation boxes and paid for my order. Unbelievable how cheap people are.
