"The chef’s new dinner concept offers a more refined, late-night take on Midwest ingredients and regional traditions, focused on sharable, elevated plates and an explorative wine program at approachable prices. Expect dishes such as grilled cucumber in a vinaigrette made from burnt cucumber skin with cranberry seed oil and caviar, and buttered rye bigoli pasta with peppers, dried chicken, and herbs; the menu is intended to be sexy, delicious, and communal. Housed in a dressed-up former garage with an open kitchen, artfully chipped sage-green walls, botanical wallpaper, and a designated “Champagne table,” the space aims to be relaxed, energetic, and loud—a neighborhood-adjacent destination located between a Family Dollar and residential blocks—and it opens for dinner tomorrow." - Monica Burton
