CHI: Sushi Mike's Day Off

Mike "Sushi Mike" Ham doesn't get a whole lot of time away from his Andersonville restaurant, Tanoshii. So he really savors what free time he gets. We asked him about what he does with a day off.

Where do you go for food?
"I eat breakfast a lot. This place Over Easy on Damen burned down a couple months ago, but the guy is rebuilding. It's worth checking out [when it reopens].

"I went to Moto downtown recently. One of their top chefs is one of my regular customers, and their food is really delicious."

What do you do for fun?
"Play guitar, work out. I go to XSport Fitness and the Galter LifeCenter. In the summertime I like to play golf; it's outside, it's beautiful and nobody bothers you.

"I recently caught a show called Wicked. That was really nice. One of the actors is another of my regular customers."
