In Chicago's pursuit to become glocal, the city's nightlife has undergone a series of renovations. Gastropubs like The Dawson, which opened in 2013, have made it their goal to attract a diverse clientele by embracing Chicago's rich history. Their design mirrors the "pioneering, artistic, and straightforward attitude"attributed to William and Henry Dawson. The Dawson Brothers operated one of the U.S.'s most successful fireplace mantle companies during the late 1800s early 1900s.

PdM's Creative Director learning about The Dawson Brother's rich history in the West Town neighborhood.
The Dawson maybe be known for its history and architecture, however, PdM had the privilege of sampling a few of their popular cocktails; Buried Alive, Midnite Vultures, and Day Spa.
Buried Alive, a mezcal infused cocktail, is the ideal drink for one of Chicago's cold winter days.
For those of you that enjoy fresh lavender and gin, Midnite Vultures is the drink for you. Both fragrant and potent, it is an ideal choice immediately after a successful business rendezvous.
When you live a busy, stressful life in the city, chances are you don't have the time to spend hours at the spa. Fortunately, this cocktail (Day Spa) is the perfect drink to unwind.
Each cocktail has a unique, exquisite taste and are all highly-recommended. While we didn't have the opportunity to sample the food offerings, we vouch for the cocktails whether you're at The Dawson for an early dinner or fancy a night out with a few girl friends.

Thank you to Madelaine Kukanza and the wonderful folks at The Dawson for a great time.
