Chicago is to be the home of a new Taylor Swift-themed bar. Electric Garden, a bar located in Chi-Town's West Loop neighborhood, is remaking itself into a pop-up venue based on T-Swift's hit Bad Blood. The bar's general manager Alex Vazquez said the Swift song, which is about a bad break up, was the perfect ode to all the anti-Valentine's Day patrons. Drinks at the pop-up will be named after some of her biggest hits, and the brunch menu will be shaped around some of Swift's favorite foods — like Fruity Pebbles french toast.
