For a single lady in the city, obtaining, transporting and setting up a tree can seem a daunting task indeed. This season, leave the hard work to the experts and head over to the lot at Big Star to peruse a line-up of trees, wreaths, lights and stands from City Tree Delivery before having your decorating supplies delivered, set-up, picked up and even recycled once the holidays are over! Better yet, a portion of all sales will be donated to green charities and local Chicago schools. Keep warm while you shop with the restaurant’s signature Mexican hot chocolate Champurrado with cinnamon and fresh mesa, available through the winter season—chef Justin Large recommends it with a shot of bourbon.
