We have not done this in some time so we decided it was time to take a little food tour of our favorite eateries in Portage Park.
If you are looking for a great place that’s affordable good for the family and has amazing steak tacos then look no further than La Palapita. This place gets 4-stars overall and consistently high ratings on Yelp.
Another of the more impressive eateries is your own home with Give Me Some Sugar. They have received 5-stars across the board on Yelp. One of the best parts of their service is that they will customize your at-home experience for whatever you want. One group did their own Ace of Cakes rather than a 3-course meal.
LAKEVIEW
Marilyn Monroe. Do you know who she is?
All kidding aside there is going to be an homage to Hollywood’s bombshell at the Kit Kat Lounge & Supper Club this Sunday June 7.
The dinner special will be completely themed to honor the legend. You can expect to see many themed items including "All About Eve" gazpacho. To read more click here.
WEST LOOP
It’s festival time in Chicago and one of the lesser known festivals is the Chicago Caribbean JerkFest at the West Loop’s Union Park.
In addition to the local Caribbean bands there will be a Jerk Cook-off featuring both pro and amateur chefs. This is one not to miss. Click here for more information.
LINCOLN SQUARE
Another favorite of ours is sweets. I mean who doesn’t love a good old fashioned ice cream cone or a slice of cake or chocolate. Well the Sweet Collective in Lincoln Square is definitely the place to be.
Of course there is the Lincoln Square favorite of Café Selmarie. Located in the heart of the Lincoln Square commercial center this location has been around since 1983 and continues to be a main part of the local community.
NAPERVILLE
I admit it I like Apple. Their products go a long way in creating cutting edge technology that brings about positive changes not to mention no viruses.
Apple has now signed a deal in Naperville to open a new store (similar to the one on Michigan Avenue) at Main and Jefferson streets. To read more click here.
