"Rude Awakenings: Overcoming the

ChicaGourmets! Hosts:
Bob Otto & Don Newcomb


Giovinella Gonthier has served as an ambassador in many countries as well as the United Nations in New York City. As president of Civility Associates in Chicago, she assists corporations with global marketing, corporate and external relations, and training. As an expert on civility and its effects on different cultures, Gonthier has appeared on CNN, CBS MarketWatch radio, and Fox TV.

"In a society in which self-centeredness and an entitlement mentality have overwhelmed people’s sense of obligation and duty, it is refreshing and indeed essential to have a book that speaks out clearly and articulately for civility." — Edgar H. Schein, Sloan Fellows Professor of Management Emeritus, MIT Sloan School of Management


In 1985, Steve Prescott opened The Davis Street Fishmarket at the corner of Hinman and Davis with a simple vision: serve top quality, fresh seafood, properly prepared, and fairly priced. Steve believes that if he does the best job he can, and has fun doing it, then the rest will follow. He also believes that above all else, who you are and what you strive for should be real. This philosophy has had lasting success. Everything you’ll see around you has a story behind it. From the beloved Harold (the original "Old Barnacle" on your Chardonnay) to Charlie (their long-time chef and fishmonger), Davis Street Fishmarket has become a thriving aggregate of many personalities.

"Famed for fish ‘as fresh as if you’d caught it,’ this Cajun-accented Evanston seafooder delivers delicious no-frills fin fare." (Zagat)
