PRIVATE DINING AND SPECIAL EVENTS

Private Dining Manager Tenae Graybosch *312-720-1208* [email protected] 350 N. State St., Chicago, IL 60654 www.tortoisesupperclub.com OUR STORY

After founding and operating the company, Flat Top Grill, for 15 years, we merged with another organization in 2009 and looked to our next adventure. We jumped into the car with our then 5 year old son, and drove around the country with no schedule and no agenda. It was truly a special year - discovering and rediscovering so many interesting and beautiful parts of this great country, and in particular, the treasures of our National Parks.

During this journey, our next professional undertaking became clear to us. We founded Tortoise Supper Club in the fall of 2012 inspired to open the type of place that combined all the things we love in a restaurant. The best example of how we wanted the restaurant to feel is embodied in the scene from “ at Tifany’s” where Holly Go-Lightly’s cocktail party is stylish, sophisticated, and yet fun and energetic, but mostly warm and welcoming.

Keene still has a flip phone. He has never had a smart phone and he is proud of it. He is the kind of person that wants to talk instead of text, and he doesn’t care if he is following the latest trends. In a way, that equates to how we feel about Tortoise, including our . Here you will find refind, American classics prepared with the highest quality ingredients from scratch.

We are both life-long Chicagoans who love and appreciate this city. All around Tortoise Supper Club, you will find art and artifacts with Chicago Stories, including many items from our family archives.

In our foyer, you will find the mahogany wood from the original Pump Room. There are two ballot boxes that were used for Chicago Mayoral elections from the 1920’s through the 1950’s. Raoul Varin Prints ofer a bird’s eye view of Chicago landscape during the 1880’s. You will also find an 1880’s pencil sketch of Andrew McNally. McNally was a great Chicagoan, and one of the founders of the Rand McNally Atlas company. He famously had the presence of mind to bury his printing presses in the sand during the Great Chicago Fire which enabled him to lead the communication eforts during post fire reconstruction, and be back in business one day after the fire.

2 OUR STORY

Keene’s grandmother was a great supporter of the arts here in Chicago including the Lyric Opera, the symphony, and Ravinia Festival. She was a great musician herself. On her 10th birthday, she was given a 1919 Steinway Grand piano which she had her entire life until it landed at Tortoise Supper Club. Our live jazz is played on her piano every Friday and Saturday night.

The Red Room library is filled with books we acquired from our local Newberry Library. It is fun to peek through encyclopedia’s from the 1950’s, and the books like the “Chicago Daily News Register.” General Wood rests stoically above the fire place. After managing logistics in the Panama Canal as the Quartermaster General and completing the project of connecting the “Path Between the Seas,” he went on to become the President and Chairman of Sears. General Wood took Sears from the largest mail order retailer in the world to the largest “brick and morter” retailer in the world.

Some of our favorite Chicago Stories are that of our “Scoundrels & Rogues.” Prior to opening, we worked with the Chicago History Museum to choose 10 scandalous or rogue individuals that had a significant impact on Chicago or an interesting Chicago story. We then commissioned local caricature artist, Chuck Senties, to create paintings of our scoundrels.

We would love to share our stories with you, just ask!

Keene and Megan Addington
