Kitsch’n

Neighborhood: Roscoe Village

2005 W. Roscoe St.

Shari ate : Grilled Cheese Sandwich & I had the Tuna Melt

YUMMMM

This Roscoe Village diner specializes in kitsch, from the Mr. Potato Head in the window to the Twinkie tiramisu on the menu. Formica kitchen tables topped with vintage toasters-turned-lamps crowd the multicolored linoleum floor and the intimate room resounds with hits of the ’70s. Most of the menu is quite modern, including ingredients like spinach pesto (in the green eggs and ham recipe), chipotle salsa and sweet-potato chips.

Husband-and-wife owners Jonathon Young and Helene Albert — he cooks, she manages — provide a warm welcome. Outdoor dining is available on the sidewalk in front, or in the beer garden in back.
