The Camel Clutch, named in honor of the Iron Sheik, is marked by the Sheik-head on the map to the left. The street address is 1448 W. Winnemac Ave. The nearest public transportation is the Argyle Red Line stop, just east of Broadway. Bus lines also run along Clark and Broadway. The Damen (#50) bus stops nearby at the intersection of Ashland and Foster. The Damen bus is currently undergoing re-routing. Please check with the CTA before relying upon it. Other neighborhood attractions include the Ba Le Vietnamese/French bakery, home of cheap, yet delicious, sandwiches. It is marked on the map by the loaf of French bread. Ba Le closes at 8pm on most nights, so be sure to allow time, if you plan to stop on the way. It's especially convenient because it is near the Argyle El station. The Camel on the map indicates a cluster of Middle Eastern restuarants and bakeries. Mmmm... fresh baked pita! The Old Style logo denotes the nearest liquor/grocery store, La Primera. Sim and Sue's, the premier hot dog stand in the area is marked with the Vienna Beef logo. You can get leathered-up at the Eagle, or lathered-up at the Man's Country bathhouse, marked with the leatherman. The graveyard is scary after dark. If you get lost, call Ted at 773.680.5608. |
