A noted wine connoisseur and worldly man of many talents, it feels like Joe Maddon could take over for the retired “Most Interesting Man in the World.” Or, maybe fill in for Tyrion Lannister if there’s ever a Game of Thrones spin-off that takes place in the future since Maddon also drinks and knows things.
Given his propensity for getting into various areas and arenas, it should come as no surprise to anyone who has followed Maddon since his days in Tampa (or even since he became the Cubs’ manager in late 2014) that he’s opening a restaurant that sits right smack dab on the corner of Clark and Waveland.
