Vinod Kalathil and his wife recently opened the restaurant Thattu in Chicago. The restaurant doesn't take tips but instead pays servers a competitive wage. My wife and I opened our restaurant, Thattu, about four months ago on the Northwest side of Chicago. Before we opened, we talked to other restaurant owners about plans for opening a "no-tip" restaurant. We actually opened the first iteration of Thattu back in 2019 in a food hall in Politan Row.

Salesforce dimmed the brightness of a logo on its new Chicago office building at the request of an alderman.

In early January, Salesforce — which is set to move into a nearly 60-story office space in Chicago later this year— crowned its Midwest headquarters with a bright fluorescent logo. According to Block Club Chicago's report, Brendan Reilly, alderman of Chicago's 42nd Ward, asked Salesforce to tone down the brightness. The adjustment took effect on Wednesday, with Salesforce also consenting to turning off the lights at 11pm every night, Reilly's office told Block Club Chicago.
