It looks like Eataly may be getting closer to landing a space ... and it sounds like it's going to be massive. Co-owner Joe Bastianich, along with chef Mario Batali, said they "are narrowing our search for a 60,000- or 70,000-square-foot space in the retail heart of Chicago," which might knock out that rumored ESPN Zone space in River North at only 35,000 square feet. He added they may have more restaurants than Eataly NY, which has seven. Let the drooling begin. [NYT]
