Pump Room - Chicago
Hotelier Ian Schrager and Michelin-starred Executive Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten breathed new energy into this iconic Chicago restaurant and lounge.
The Pump Room holds onto some of its cherished memories of famous friends (You'll find photos everywhere of the likes of David Bowie, Frank Sinatra, Marilyn Monroe and more), furnishings (light fixtures and some furniture) and food, but this is certainly a contemporary version that's catering to a younger, neighborhood-area crowd.
