Dimmi Dimmi Corner Italian Is Coming to Lincoln Park | Eater Chicago

"Planned for 1112 W. Armitage Avenue with a late July–early August opening, this Cornerstone Restaurant Group project aims to retain longtime neighborhood diners while attracting new ones. Executive chef Matt Eckfeld—who split roughly 13 years between his Bucktown and West Loop concepts and spent nearly 12 years with Major Food Group’s Italian-American brands—plans a menu of house-made pastas, seasonal vegetables, sandwiches and well-crafted focaccia, with produce sourced from nearby Green City Market when in season. Former Boka pastry chef Casey Doody will handle desserts, including gelato and cakes, and the kitchen is promising familiar, approachable Italian-American fare rather than overly fussy plating." - Ashok Selvam
