Who knew?? I had no idea until tonight what a hidden gem lies right off Lincoln in downtown Skokie. Delicious, complex flavors, wonderful mole and spices, great music and artwork/sculpture. We even dared to bring our small, noisy kids (we were so nervous, but we chose a Monday night early and they have this amazing, inexpensive, healthy kids' menu!). I was blown away by it all. Next time, no kids, just me and the man, low lights, fantastic food, can't wait! How did I not know about this place???
