City Winery in Chicago has made its welcoming atmosphere last through the winter with its outdoor "igloo" dining pods.
These intimate igloos are designed to house you and your pod, whether that's friends or family. That means seasonal cheer without fear. The bring your own blanket bit above wasn't a joke. These pods protect from the chill, but aren't internally heated, so guests are encouraged to carry some warmth with them.
