Restaurants - Some Neighborhood Faves!


Some of My Favorite Neighborhood Restaurants:


Treat - New fab. fish fry on Tuesdays - I hope Tamiz keeps this for awhile! (Humboldt Park)

Lula Cafe - Local, sustainable and regional food (Logan Square)

Feed - Great place in Humboldt Park (& near my office!) Perfect for brunch - I need to try them for dinner! (Humboldt Park)

Urban Belly - You had me @ noodles - I'll share a table, but not my Ramen! (Avondale)

Piece - White w/ roasted red peppers, Italian sausage (or chicken), artichoke hearts & goat cheese! (Wicker Park)
