Have you been to Suite Lorain? We like that place.
You should try Villa y Zapata for lunch, esp. on Saturdays- 2 for 1 lunch combo (I actually saw a guy order 2 for himself and eat them both). Or, bring a friend, is probably the better approach.
i just filled out an application for wcsb. if you go up to the 9th floor, they'll give you one.
great list!!!
