Weekend Photos: Dirty Martini & Crescendo

This week, two newbies in River North: Dirty Martini (23 W. Hubbard St.), the happy hour hot spot with martinis on tap (yes, you read that right), and Crescendo, which opened on a high note earlier this summer before closing soon after, now under new management

A martini can't be "on tap". You're thinking of the vodka, which is chilled and comes from a tap (according to Metromix). I hope that isn't right, because a classical dirty martini should be made with gin. Shame on them, and shame on you for making me do your homework.
