a different continent just around the corner


 Out with the girls Monday I continued my stepping out of the box this year. I choose an Algerian Kafe for lunch.:)
Icosium Kafe is located at 5200 N Clark in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. 
 LOve loVE this little place! It's going on my fab list. The atmosphere pulls you in! It's a creperie and it's sooo difficult to pick, it all sounds fabulous.
I had hand made apricot iced tea, a vegetable puree soup and the Chicago Crepe~ Avocados, sundried tomato tapanade , cilantro, munster cheese, an organic mix of fresh greens, scallions and sun flower seeds.
MmmMmM! Can't wait to go back! You should try it!

  5. from someone who is very very food picky, this resturant definatley did not disapoint. The colors where beautiful and it was fun to step outside of my comfort zone.
