Hi Damien,

I'm a coworker of Paul's too. :-)

There's no shortage of good restaurants between the main campus and 
Arlington Heights. Since we clearly need a first suggestion, I'm going 
to start by suggesting Olive Garden. The only one I know of is by 
Woodfield mall, but I'm sure there are others.

Flames? Responses?
