The Best New Restaurants in Chicago | Eater Chicago

"The team behind Michelin-starred Galit — a finalist for the 2025 James Beard Award for Outstanding Restaurant — has opened an all-day cafe with fun pastries like mini-croissants, baklava, and more. Cafe Yaya freshens up for dinner with an a la carte menu that allows the Galit crew to showcase other international influences, departing from the Middle Eastern diaspora at the original restaurant. Grab a seat at the bar during the day and enjoy a great cup of coffee and nosh on baked goods." - Ashok Selvam
