What to Eat (and What it Means) at Lockdown Bar & Grill, Opening this Winter

Opening in Ukranian Village some time in 2010 will be Lockdown Bar & Grill (1024 N Western Ave), a concert bar with a barbed wire aesthetic and a punningly badass menu. We’re happy to try to figure out the thought process that went into naming an appetizer of sausage, peppers, and fried eggplant “Tasers & Pepper Spray,” or quesadillas “El Paso Prison,” but what’s really got us literally laughing out loud is the felony-themed burger list: the Cruelty to Animals is a beef patty topped with pancetta and turkey bacon, the Malicious Destruction of Property comes with extra meat, extra peppers, extra cheese, and extra napkins, and the turkey burger is, of course, False Impersonation. Read on for the full exercise in creativity.
