Illinois Street Food Emporium

This restaurant is absolutely wonderful. You order at the counter from the menu hanging from the ceiling offering everything from pancakes and omlettes to egg sandwiches, then you pay and find a seat where your food will be brought to you in under ten minutes. Everything is delicious including everything in the pastry case. Pastries, cakes and side dishes as well as breads and bagels are available for take out as well.

I love to go to the Food Emporium and sit with a cup of coffee and an alligator. Or a chocolate chip scone. Or a lemon muffin...

They have cafe seating which is heavenly in the summer, but also they give you a free cup of coffee on days it snows. A whirling desert case to die for, and healthy, made to order entrees.
