Hell if I know... uhhh... inbound on LSD three hours after rush?  Parking
near the restaurant will be hellish.  There's a rather large garage at
Rush and Delaware, and parking ought to be about $10-15.  It's directly
above Johnny Rockets.

Take Lakeshore all the way until you see the Museum of Science and
Industry.  U of C is thereabouts and I don't have a clue where anything is
on campus.

On the way back, get back on LSD.  Follow the signs for Navy Pier, this
should get you down on the lower deck of Lake Shore.  From there, turn
left on Grand and take it to Rush.  Turn right on Rush and take it to
Delaware (it's the second street past Chicago Ave.) and get parked.  The
restaurant will be back down at Chicago Ave.
