Maybe The Hot New Restaurant In Your City Isn’t Really New

"Opened in 2014; closed for two years in 2022, then five months in 2024 When Parachute first opened in 2014, it turned its neighborhood into a destination. The chef had just finished her stint on Top Chef, and her new restaurant defined a new generation of Korean American food in Chicago. It adapted a few times in its 10 years of operation before closing, and now the owners have rebranded the original space as a listening bar. New concepts can be hard to accept, but if all of life’s evolutions came with Parachute Hi-Fi’s boozy bingsu, tteokbokki pad thai, and neighborhood bar charm, we’d welcome change with open arms." - anne cruz
