WICKER PARK— Doug Sohn will appear from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday at Piece Pizzeria to promote the "Atomic Pizza," a pie made with sausage that was served at Hot Doug's. The pizza is only available through March, and 10 percent of proceeds benefit Pilot Light. Sales in February from a pizza created by Stephanie Izard netted $1,771.60. [EaterWire]

LAKEVIEW— Cullen's Bar & Grill is officially shuttered on Southport. The bar, which attempted a social media campaign to keep its doors open, reached an agreement with its landlord, the Mercury Theater, to shutter. The theater will open some sort of new restaurant in its place. [Southport Corridor News & Events]
