The Best Restaurants In Hyde Park - Chicago - The Infatuation

"If you didn’t already know about it, you may have heard of Valois because of President Obama—it’s famous for being one of his favorite spots in Hyde Park. There’s even a sign letting you know what he likes to order. But what really makes this place unique is the fact that it’s an old-school cafeteria, complete with old-school cafeteria food (like meatloaf), plastic trays, and people who will yell at you if you move too slowly through the line. Breakfast—like eggs, bacon, sausage, biscuits and gravy, and pancakes—is our favorite thing to eat here. Just remember that it’s cash only." - adrian kane
