Boricua! Just 4 miles west of downtown, Humboldt Park is a vibrant, simmering ethno-dimensional taco wrapped around a bustling 219-acre park. Historically diverse, culturally magnificent, with Scandinavian and Polish roots, Humboldt's now the beating heart of Chicago’s mighty Puerto Rican community. Suffice it to say, we’ve got it all: jibaritos, pierogis, ancient oaks, cold beer, cumbia, slow-pitch, good people.
Equally stunning and decrepit.
Patterns, pooches, couches and couture fill this magically decorated vintage modern home shopping spot. Grab a seat under the warm glow of a neon logo while admiring the endlessly eclectic collection of pottery and succulents. When you're done wishing this place was your living room, head next door to Pierogi Street for some consolation dumplings.
