Modern, no-frills counter-serve dishing up 100% vegan lunch & all-day breakfast. Newly married and In the winter of '96 Gina & Andy needed an affordable apartment that would allow dogs, have parking and be close to the El and lake. Uptown proved to be the best fit. In order to pay for graduate school Andy worked as a private chef and Gina worked in social service. While noble in his intent, social work was not the right fit for Andy, Gina told him so. Gina agreed that she would keep her day job and give Andy a few years to find his culinary path. The first stop on that path was 1224 W. Wilson Ave. It was a fledgling Chinese restaurant whose owner needed a break. Over an egg roll Andy & Mr. Fung negotiated out the terms and a week later Gina & Andy had their first professional kitchen.
