As restaurants across the nation adapt to a new normal amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, eateries that largely rely on outdoor dining are hurtling toward yet another obstacle: the looming winter months and their less-than-favorable alfresco conditions they bring.
In an effort to ease these concerns, the city of Chicago has announced a Winter Design Challenge aimed at finding an innovative solution that still adheres to local health and safety guidelines. The winners will receive $5,000 for their most creative, feasible ideas.

Leave Chicago. I’d like my $5,000 in 20’s please.
Move the restaurant out of Chicago and into a warm climate.
Where is my check?
The solution >> Indoor Dining.
Get rid of BeetleJuice and that fat azz governor, and one can dine inside in peace.
A table at a cafe on Las Olas or South Beach?
I would bet that a majority of these restaurants voted for this crap. Now live with your vote.
Darn, you beat me to it. Enjoy your $5,000.
You could invite Antifa to Chicago to burn down buildings. The heat should be enough to keep people warm while they eat.
OR...you could put people inside where it’s warm.
Does this come with BLM and antifa harassment?
Have the outdoor dining take place under a roof with walls. You know, like “inside”. Please remit my $5000.
Sterno, hot plates, insulated dining bibs and wind-screens.
C’mon, it will be fun! And it may start a new fad.
After all, some people pay good money to sleep in an ice palace in Montreal’s winter carnival.
Tell your governor to stick it.
Speaking of Chicago, is HeyJackass down...?
For Chicago I imagine warming a tin of beans over a burn barrel in a back alley as the solution, but they already have that.
Any and all heat designs must be sourced DIRECTLY from either solar or wind generation.
No hydrocarbon-based heating designs are allowed.
Wouldn’t that make your baked Alaska yummy.
Frozen pizza?
Rid the Chicago government of the queer black mayor and all her corrupt black minions
I spent two winters in Germany in a Pershing Missile firing battalion. We ate outdoors in the winter all the time, three meals a day, weeks on end.
Maybe look at old footage from the 70’s of tail-gate parties before Vikings’ football games in late November?
