The Heartland Cafe, a Chicago institution
Friday, December 23, 2005
Certain places incarnate the flavor and values of a time and particular location. The Heartland Cafe is a unique Chicago institution that is like a rare flower that only grows in one place on earth, Rogers Park, Chicago, IL, USA, planet earth.
The time referred to is the late 60's, early 70s when certainly ideas seemed certain to manifest. They are alive and well here, although their survival is highly questionable elsewhere in Bushville.
You can eat your organic chili here, listen to all kinds of wonderful music, and pick up the latest progressive alternative rag. Be sure to check out the cool art too.
Only in Chicago.
