Sat, 7 June 2008  Summer '08 is here in our hemisphere, and it's time to get out there for some Cheap Date goodness! Join us on the patio for a glass of Zolo Torrontes, this week's restaurant review, and some recommendations for upcoming events... First off, we share our thoughts about Gumrai Thai, a relatively new restaurant in downtown Arlington Heights. Then, we talk about two bike rides in which we took part: Bike the Drive and The Miller Lite Ride for the Arts. We round out the show with some of our favorite, cheap, Summertime things-to-do, including the Arlington Heights Evening Music Programs, Frontier Days, Capannari's Ice Cream Family Nights, and Elk Grove Village's Rotary Fest. Something you'd like to share? Send your throughts to cheapdateshow@gmail.com or leave a voice mail at 206 203-3283. "Summer's Cauldron" and "Grass" are by the fabulous XTC. This episode's running time: 32:34. |
