"Levain Bakery, the New York City-based chain that has earned a cult following with its enormous cookies, will open its second Chicago location this fall at 408 N. Clark Street, according to a rep. The company launched its first Windy City outpost in November 2022 to much fanfare, with dedicated fans forming a line at 5 a.m. in 16-degree weather for its debut in West Loop." - Naomi Waxman
