Spice Up Your Summer With Hot Dishes at These 13 Chicago Spots | Eater

"It may not be a scientifically proven fact that food tastes better when you eat it outside, but who can argue with a vibe? Hawthorne’s Backyard serves up burgers, fall-off-the-bone ribs, and wings with a mind-boggling array of flavors, including hot garlic and habanero, plus different degrees of hotness (from mild to insane), all in a four-acre backyard that encourages guests to linger all day long. Eat a bit, play a game of volleyball or pickleball, and then eat some more while you enjoy free live music on the weekends." - Aimee Levitt
