"This casual Wicker Park spot specializes in delicious handmade pasta, and you can watch them make it in their street-side window. Order burrata-filled tortellini, cacio e pepe, or squid ink bucatini, and then grab a table. Whichever pasta you choose, throw in some of their focaccia with ricotta and honey to go with it. Also worth noting: There’s a cute sidewalk patio if you want a seat close to the pasta-making process." - john ringor, nick allen, adrian kane
