Chilapan 2 Opens; Small's Gin @ Vincent's Koffeeshop

LAKEVIEW—Chilapan opened its second location on Thursday night at 1522 W. Montrose. While chef/owner Jorge Miranda's menu will be nearly the same as the original spot in Logan Square, his wife/partner Olga Vega-Miranda said they're adjusting some dishes as to not compete with neighboring Mixteco Grill. Don't forget a bottle as the 74-seat Mexican restaurant is BYO. [EaterWire]
