"A restaurant-and-cafe space housed inside the Green Exchange building in Logan Square, this flexible venue overlooks the northbound Kennedy Expressway at the Diversey exit and serves as a neighborhood hub for pop-ups, chef residencies, and occasional filming (it was a location for kitchen scenes in the pilot of The Bear). Co-owners opened the space to visiting chefs and events; it has hosted Rick Spiros as chef in residence and special appearances such as gumbo drops by legendary local chefs. Its programming-friendly layout gives restaurateurs room to test prix-fixe dinners, reservations-first seatings, and to accommodate production needs when needed." - Ashok Selvam
