Filipino food, cocktails, Goth Bread, and CBD tinctures
"Logan Square has a lot of dark bars and sports bars. But if you want something different in the neighborhood, you should know about Young American. This small spot has plenty of windows, neon lights, and is even bright enough inside to keep some plants alive. The food and drink menu includes ingredients like leek ash, activated charcoal, and CBD - a lot of trends from two years ago. But the cocktails are great, and they’ve got some tasty dishes like Goth Bread (served with a garlicky “smudge butter,” whatever that means) and small plates like pickled okra with popcorn grits." - adrian kane
"A short-lived 2019 placeholder concept in the corner space that experimented with offbeat offerings like 'goth' bread and CBD-infused drinks; the project ultimately could not survive the challenges posed by the pandemic." - Ashok Selvam
"Nick Jirasek of Young American is part of FitzGerald’s chef’s burger series." - Ashok Selvam
"This Logan Square newcomer, has already made a name for itself with its playful menus. The newest transformation at Young American now includes a Filipino food focus, with dishes like the Filipino pimento cheese and the “Not Cacio e Pepe,” made with spicy ramen noodles from Sun Noodle, shiitake stock brewer’s yeast, and chili crisp. The other menu standouts that got all of Chicago talking, though, are the cocktails. Order a spirits-free one, like the pineapple shrub, or, if you’re feeling adventurous, add a CBD tincture to it." - Vox Creative
