> Anyone here eat at a "celebrity" place lately? How was it?

If you count Jim Lovell (the astronaut) as a celebrity, then there's
Lovell's of Lake Forest in suburban Chicago. Jim's son is the executive
chef; I assume his dad set him up with this restaurant when he got out
of chef school, got some experience, and was ready to try his own
place. The food is very very good, Jim shows up frequently to meet and
greet the patrons, and there is lots of cool space memorabilia around
to look at. It is a very nice restaurant completely apart from the
celebrity factor, and I believe that's why it has done well over the
years.
