    Every dish is well made. The food tastes differently; probably because the food is quality!

    Located in the Arts District in Oak Park. This is a good place for a quick lunch with some decent coffee drinks. The draw for me was the vast amounts of art from local artists on the wall.

    Ask for Damien- and order a latte with half a shot of hazelnut, half a shot of caramel. Then give him a high five.
