MUST VISIT CHICAGO: KINGSBURY STREET CAFE

Kingsbury Street Cafe

1523 N Kingsbury Street
Chicago, IL 60462
Near North Side

After meeting with my health coach, I was hungry for brunch and craving something that wasn't too over-the-top indulgent. I had heard great things about this new cafe (that happens to be on the most torn up street in Chicago), so after my session we headed over to this lovely new jem. I have to say, just after walking in I could already tell we were in for a great experience. The interior is light, airy, modern and roomy. Perfect for anyone with a stroller so you don't feel like an asshole walking in with your kid. The food was delicious -- even some vegan options! We will definitely be back, and if you're in the area I wholeheartedly give my recommendation.

Why You Should Visit
• Absolutely kid friendly
• Zen-like interior
• Fantastic brunch
• Eco-friendly water and compostable cups

Good To Know
• No lot, street parking only
• Make reservations on a weekend

What To Order
• Vietnamese drip-coffee with sweetened condensed milk

bump : week 23

The sub-zero weather has kept us indoors, but it hasn't kept us from having the most amount of fun possible. I've been enjoying hot cups of tea served with teaspoons of sugar and condensed milk, curling up with my favorite blanket and enjoying the tap-tap, nudge-nudge of the littlest De La Rosa. Though I find myself playing catch up yet again (I'm 24 weeks!) I'm not complaining in the least bit. I've had this little family of mine all to myself for a full four days with no work, no emails, no agenda and no pressure. Ahhhhh... happy winter celebration, little baby. PS- did you know Erick finally launched his website ? It's up, it's responsive, and it's gorgeous. I'm a proud muma bear.
