I'll be in Chicago this weekend. I want to find a nice hookah lounge with good music and live bellydancers. I prefer a place that is a mixed age crowd. I don't want to end up somewhere with a bunch of 21 yr old kids. Any recommendations? Can i get there by train?

The best-known hookah/bellydancing joint is A La Turka. Incidentally, they also have very good and very affordable food in the ground floor dining room (hookah bar is upstairs). Very good crowd mix. It's about a two-block walk from the Paulina stop on the CTA Brown Line. (BTW, in case you're not familiar with Chicago street names, "Paulina" is pronounced "Puh-LYE-nuh".)

Thanks for the heads up on those spots and helping me to pronounce names like a local.

Good call on the Paulina pronunciation. I used to live on Paulina, and it's an easy well to tell who's not local!
