Fish Bar Chicago, part of DMK Restaurants, is proud to announce the launch of its 2014 charitable program - Friends of Fish. During this charitable initiative, the Lakeview seafood spot teams up with a non-profit organization whose efforts focus on sustainable fishing, farming and the aquatic environment. The Friends of Fish agenda, which begins with Shedd Aquarium for the first quarter, will boast a variety of efforts including donations, raffles, events, food and drink specials, and more.
Shedd Aquarium is dedicated to raising awareness about threats to the Great Lakes ecosystems and inspiring guests to make a difference - in their backyards and across the basin. To continue its mission, Shedd has chosen a "Fish of the Month" for the months of January, February and March, each highlighting a sustainable seafood choice that Fish Bar will offer as a special. The quarter one "Fish of the Month" specials are as follows:
January - Farmed Rainbow Trout
February - Dungeness Crab
March - Farmed Clams
In addition to the "Fish of the Month", also in support of Shedd, $5 raffle tickets will be sold throughout the quarter for the chance to win a set of two passes to "Shedd Aquarium Feeding Tour: Behind the Scenes in Wild Reef." Guests can experience mealtime with the sharks during a 50-minute guided exploration into how Shedd's experts care for one of the aquarium's most diverse and fascinating animal groups.
During quarter one, Fish Bar also brings back "Soup for the Soul," where every Wednesday from 4:00pm to 6:00pm, complimentary soup will be shared outside of Fish Bar to passers-by, with suggested donations going to Shedd Aquarium.

County Barbeque is proud to further contribute to the community with the 365 Days of Giving program that DMK Burger Bar started and has continued annually since opening in 2009. Starting this month, County BBQ will team up with a different local non-profit organization every month to help raise funds and educate on their behalf.
To kick off the program, County will be passing on 100% of the proceeds of a secret menu item to the Chicago Police Memorial Fund. The CPMF is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to honoring the lives of our fallen heroes that provides support and assistance to the families of Chicago police officers who are killed or catastrophically injured in the line of duty.
