THE BAR OWNER
Todd Rubin—of Cabaret and, more recently, Privé in Vegas—is back and opening a new River North bar (name and address TBD) with the team behind English.
THE DJS

THE PROMOTER

THE MIXOLOGIST
Bradley Bolt—formerly of The Violet Hour, a.k.a. craft-cocktailing central—has taken his bartending chops to the new Bar DeVille.
THE SCENESTER
Easy on the eyes and a pro athlete, Blackhawks defenseman James “Wiz” Wisniewski, 24, has been spotted at The Fifty/50, Le Passage, Stanley’s, and Manor.
