Food Scene

Based on Back to the Future, it's totally 80's and totally awesome. The Vanilla Bean Latte is the best. Great location, I like to grab my coffee and head to Wicker Park around the corner on Sundays.

Authentic, divey, hole-in-the-wall mexican food. It's a restaurant and take-out, Anthony Bourdain style. It has a cult-following amongst the locals. I remember going there after the bars a few times.
