I’ve driven by this place more times than I can count and when it comes time to think of somewhere we might want to go and try, I never think of this place. Until today. Quesadilla La Reina del Sur is a vegetarian Mexican restaurant, with the vegan…
Just go. This was one of the very best meals I have ever had, period. Full stop. I’d been getting excited in the days leading up to our reservation, reading and re-reading the menu. Each time gasping a little bit and truly in a quandary over what I…

Out running errands again today (do you see a theme here) and took hubby along Devon Ave on the north side of Chicago, where, as it approaches Western, there are a lot of South Asian businesses. It’s a really unique few blocks. I’d read about an Indian place that…
