Baked or fried goat cheese (chèvre) medallions can turn a green salad into comfort food.
Raspberry Mocha Cake
This chocolate sour cream cake gets its flavor in part from a tall Starbucks raspberry mocha, in addition to a layer of jam or preserves. It’s dense, rich, and sophisticated.
Free Wi-Fi in Rogers Park: Logon Chicago, Edition V
Beard-spotting and co-working while sipping coffee in a Rogers Park Starbucks cafe near the intersection of Columbia & Sheridan (just north of the Red Line Loyola stop). Along the way: a shout out to Dr. Who and the Jesuits, as well as an on-going search for a free Wi-Fi log-on and an electrical outlet in Chicago. Plus, some socio-cultural humor and a plug for Bop-N-Grill. Wow, that’s a lot … but I swear to you, it’s all good.
Whipped White Vanilla Buttercream Frosting
This white vanilla buttercream frosting is fluffy and light. It’s not overly sweet, nor overly rich. It will complement your cake, rather than overpower it.

Illinois Bar and Grill
If you’re on the way home from MDW and find yourself hungry, you’ll find a bacon-laden hamburger the Illinois Bar and Grill calls “the best” on 47th Street in Archer Park, Chicago. I suggest you have it with a Blue Moon if you’re a beer drinker, and onion rings. In between the bar and Midway, if you need internet access, seek out Starbucks.
