"A long-vacant corner in Logan Square is now an acclaimed salumeria and all-day cafe, thanks to the efforts of fledgling restaurant group Meadowlark Hospitality. Co-owners Steve Lewis and chef Christopher Thompson have been vocal about their desire to serve the neighborhood rather than critics, but have nonetheless captured Michelin’s attention for two years running." - Eater Staff, Ashok Selvam
