I lost the love of my life this morning.
Unfortunately Cancer won this battle. I don’t think I could have loved anyone like i loved John. He was my love, my best friend and my business partner. And you couldnt ask for a better father to Isabella and Logan and a greater friend to so many! We spent 30 years together and that just wasn’t enough! My heart is crushed!
People used to ask ‘how can you work together all day and then go home to be together?’ I honestly loved every minute of it!! Now I can’t have that joy ever again.

What people say
Blue Frog's Local 22 was a fantastic restaurant in Chicago that focused on using locally sourced foods, meats, produce, and beer. Their commitment to supporting local businesses and farmers truly set them apart. One of the highlights of their menu was their incredible hamburgers, made with ingredients sourced from places not too far from the bar. The use of Slagel Family Farms meat ensured that their burgers were always juicy and packed with flavor.
In addition to their mouthwatering burgers, Blue Frog's Local 22 also offered other delicious options like pulled pork sandwiches and Reubens. The variety of choices on their menu catered to different tastes and preferences, ensuring that everyone could find something they loved.
What made Blue Frog's Local 22 even more impressive was their extensive drink selection. With 24 draft beers from the Chicago area, half of which were regularly rotated, beer enthusiasts were in for a treat. They also served over 40 types of bottled beers, with over 90% being local brews. This dedication to showcasing local breweries added an extra layer of authenticity to the dining experience.
The ambiance at Blue Frog's Local 22 was inviting and lively. As soon as you walked in, you were greeted by a bar adorned with sports memorabilia and photographs covering the walls. With 20 TVs displaying major sports events throughout the day and night, it was the perfect spot for sports enthusiasts to enjoy a meal while catching up on their favorite games. And if you happened to visit on Tuesdays through Saturdays, you could even join in on some karaoke fun!
Although Blue Frog's Local 22 has unfortunately closed its doors, it is worth mentioning that Chef John Reed and his wife Kelly have opened Jokers Cajun. This new venture promises to bring their culinary expertise and passion for local ingredients to a new concept.
Overall, Blue Frog's Local 22 was a gem in Chicago's dining scene. Their commitment to using locally sourced ingredients, their mouthwatering burgers, and their extensive selection of local beers made it a must-visit spot for food and drink enthusiasts.
