"Teich acknowledged that past as well as the building’s most recent tenant, Stone Flower — a restaurant that operated under a cloud of controversy before quietly closing last year." - Ashok Selvam
"Stone Flower, chef Jacob Bickelhaupt’s follow-up restaurant to Michelin-starred 42 Grams, is officially closed. Bickelhaupt yearned for a Michelin star at Stone Flower, which opened in 2019. Critics were reluctant to visit his subsequent restaurant due to the controversy surrounding his arrest." - Ashok Selvam
"Bucktown: Stone Flower, chef Jacob Bickelhaupt’s follow-up to Michelin-starred 42 Grams, is permanently closed at 1952 N. Damen Avenue. First opened in May 2019, Stone Flower briefly transitioned to takeout during the pandemic — its last on-premise service held before the state closed restaurants in March 2020. The shutter happened over the summer, as Bickelhaupt has moved to Denver. But news popped up in January that another fine dining restaurant, Claudia, would take over the space." - Naomi Waxman
"Stone Flower, the new restaurant from Jacob Bickelhaupt, formerly of Michelin-starred restaurant 42 Grams, opens tonight in Bucktown. Bickelhaupt’s new fine dining restaurant features a 12- to 15-course tasting menu that costs $300 per person after service charges. That would rank it as the second-most expensive tasting menu in Chicago, second only to three-Michelin-starred Alinea. The restaurant, which occupies the space that once belonged to Dixie and Takashi at 1952 N. Damen Avenue, has a 12-seat chef’s counter and serves a tasting menu, just like 42 Grams did. According to its website, the menu will be “ever evolving,” and “pay tribute to the ingredients with a sense of time and place.” Also: “A thoughtful wine list is intelligently sourced from all around the globe and a focus on living life to the absolute fullest. We would love to welcome you to what we consider our home for creativity and a place of community.” Reservations for Stone Flower are available exclusively via Eventbrite. Stone Flower, 1952 N. Damen Avenue, open Wednesday through Sunday with seatings at 5:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. Wednesdays in May will be reserved for private events; tickets available via Eventbrite." - Ashok Selvam
"Stone Flower was announced in December to be taking over the space at 1952 N. Damen Avenue. It features a 12-seat chef’s counter with wine pairings for $300 per person, with service included. It should open on May 2, according to Bickelhaupt. He has said he expects Michelin to award his restaurant multiple stars." - Ashok Selvam
