this guy learned his lesson... avoid writing "disgruntled" letters... doesn't help one bit, just prolongs the whole deal... without documentation(written) you have nothing in small claims but a long wait, extra parking fees, rude counter service and inaction in action!
live and learn, move on... or, do what you must, and do it well...

Sorry to hear about your challenges. I wish you had let me know and I would have done whatever I could from here in Atlanta to resolve. Obviously that Hotel is going through a period of flux.
I guess all the Chicago Tikiphiles will just have to come to Tiki Torch Nights which are going strong at Trader Vic's Atlanta.

Interesting. That would explain the financial tightening to clean up the pay-ables for acquisition purposes.
Just a thought.

I can't confirm this, but I have a very good source that tells me Vic's Chicago will be closed at the end of 2005.
Looks like James' suspicions are correct. Sorry for the bad news. Everyone enjoy it while there's still time.

Here is an email I rec'd referring to an email I sent to someone in Vic's upper management;
"So I called him and asked if TV will be closing
He said he could not say but whatever happens is for the good
Which led me to believe that it will close but it is best because the new owners do not want it"
Sorry, my source at Vic's is being mum, but mum in this case probably isn't a good thing. 
Time to write letters praising Vic's?

Move it to that closed-up place in the hotel near O'Hare.
Just a thought.
