DIVA BINGO: Leave the kids at home for what you'd hardly call your run-of-the-mill bingo. HamBINGO Mary's is a weekly charity event held in Hamburger Mary's Dining Room, benefiting a different charity each week. Drag diva Velicity Metropolis hosts this risqué bingo, but you may need to get there early to get a table. 8 p.m., 5400 N Clark St, $5
COOK A NEW CUISINE: It's one thing to discover eating Puerto Rican food, but quite another to learn how to cook it, which you can do tonight at one of La Cocina Boricua de la Familia Galarza's cooking classes. Learn how to make standards such as guachitas, mofongo and pasteles, and we're pretty sure there'll be plenty of sampling involved as well. 7 p.m., 2420 W. Fullerton Ave., $20
BOOM BOOM ROOM: There's no question that anyone willing to kick it late on a Monday is serious about getting their groove on, but for more years than we can count, the Boom Boom Room at Green Dolphin has been one of the most respected dance parties in the city among industry insiders. DJs Diz, Michael Serafini, Just Joey and Uncle Milty spin classic house all night long. 10 p.m., 2200 N. Ashland Ave, $10 with RSVP
