Anyone ever eat at Nellcote?

Not sure what to think of this Chicago restaurant:

[www.nellcoterestaurant.com]

"Taking its inspiration from Villa Nellcôte, the notorious Côte d’Azur mansion where the Rolling Stones dined and partied with a rotating cast of 1970s bohemians, socialites, style icons and creative rabble-rousers during the recording of 'Exile on Main Street,' Nellcôte is a stunningly elegant playground for anyone looking to indulge their deviant streak."

In true Nellcote fashion, do they have an overweight drug addict-cum-smuggler ruling the kitchen?

Unless they come with Keith and his fag and Mick Taylor at my table, that's too much for a lousy plate of hot cakes.

No kidding!
As clarified above I am a bunch of cheap f*ckers!

I will be missing the 2013 tour as well. I have way better memories to draw from.

I hope the lighting and decor is better than this.



I really like this picture. It's dark, powerful. I can imagine that Charlie is thinking, "For @#$%&'s sake! What have I gotten myself into? How much longer can I do this? I need an exit plan."

Oh Man...
So many fine restaurants in Chicago and then there's this new one.
If the owner had ever been to Nellcote, he would know that the very old kitchen there was close to unusable. Food was generally brought in -- but food was never the top priority.

No wonder Marlon is still thin.

I've been there 5 or 6 times. It has a decadent feel to the place. There's a big picture of Anita Pallenberg in the one dining areas. Pictures of Jagger and Marianne Faithful on the bathroom doors. They have played Rolling Stones music when I was there as well. Food is tapas style and I've enjoyed it. A little pricey for their specialty drinks.

Worth a look if you are in Chicago.

Surely that should read "anyone looking to indulge their deviant steak"?

... Maybe they found that Mick and Bianca look too much alike to unambiguously distinguish between the men's and the ladies'

I want to go there to meet a nice girl. They better watch they don't get audited. The second video showing off the place has Ventilator Blues playing over it.
