WICKER PARK—Go full frontal, at least sit in front of chefs, at Storefront Company when you dine at their kitchen counter for a multi-course prix-fixe dinner prepared by chef Bryan Moscatello and his team. Call 773-661-2609 to reserve and check out these great photos in the interim. [Chicagoist]

RIVER NORTH—Au Cheval quietly started brunch on Sunday and in case you missed it, they'll have it every weekend, starting Friday, with items including chilaquiles; scrambled eggs with bone marrow and toast; crispy potato hash with duck heart gravy; and, of course, cocktails like bloody marys and mimosas.
