Shaw's Crab House - Restaurant # 4

Last night, in prep for the big day, we had a really nice fish dinner at Shaw's Crab House, downtown on Hubbard just east of State. Shaw's features a cool art deco era bar. Everything you eat there is drenched in buttery goodness, just the right level of comfort for the night before surgery. We started out with crab cakes and then Kate had halibut and Susan had mahi, topped off with a huge piece of key lime pie. Home by 8:00, Susan promptly fell asleep while watching the Cubs come from behind to beat the visiting SF Giants in the ninth inning. That's a good sign, right?
