"On a gray and rainy day, take the brood to Manchamenteles in Logan Square. The wood-fire meats at this large, lively Mexican restaurant are perfectly cooked, but we like how colorful the place is, including the ceiling that’s painted with blue skies. Pair the complex mole negro or tender pork shoulder with a generously poured margarita while the little ones work through their kid’s menu quesadillas and point at decor that’s far more stimulating than an iPad." - adrian kane, nick allen
