Harry Caray’s Italian Steakhouse

August 7, 2012 – (Above) Mitt Romney talks baseball with Dutchie Caray, widow of Harry Caray, at Harry Caray’s Italian Steakhouse on West Kinzie Street Tuesday afternoon. The Republican presidential candidate was there for a fundraising lunch, tickets to which were priced in the tens of thousands of dollars. The two spoke briefly about Harry and the Chicago Cubs.

Also attending was Illinois State Treasurer Dan Rutherford. Romney then went to nearby Maggiano’s on North Clark Street for a similar event. (Photo obtained from Harry Caray’s. Click on image to view larger version.)
