"Everything on the menu at Left Coast sounds like something Gwyneth Paltrow eats. You’ll find stuff like miso marinated salmon, grain bowls, and tofu wraps - and a lot of avocado. They have two locations (one’s in River North), but we prefer the Lakeview space for its beach house feel and outdoor patio. Come for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Just don’t name your child after your favorite avocado toast here - that’s a little too Gwyneth." - josh barnett, sam faye
