"Deciding whether or not to open a long-planned food business in the midst of a global pandemic was a choice that cheesemonger Randall Felts grappled with in March during the early days of Illinois’s stay-at-home order. Ultimately, Felts has decided to launch his cheese shop, Beautiful Rind, on Tuesday at 2211 N. Milwaukee Avenue in Logan Square. Felts, an Alabama native who formerly worked as operations manager at now-shuttered wine-and-cheese shop Pastoral, hopes his business can help spread a little “cheese joy,” through online education and sales." - Naomi Waxman
