Boricua! Just 4 miles west of downtown, Humboldt Park is a vibrant, simmering ethno-dimensional taco wrapped around a bustling 219-acre park. Historically diverse, culturally magnificent, with Scandinavian and Polish roots, Humboldt's now the beating heart of Chicago’s mighty Puerto Rican community. Suffice it to say, we’ve got it all: jibaritos, pierogis, ancient oaks, cold beer, cumbia, slow-pitch, good people.
Equally stunning and decrepit.
If there is a heaven, it's most definitely filled with Katherine Anne's. From the are-you-f'ng-kidding-me caramels (she's been making them since age 10!) to the better-than-fill-in-the-blank truffles (with new flavors turning up regularly), quite literally, nothing compares. And damn you if you miss a chance at the ridiculously rich seasonal FEW Bourbon hot chocolate with salted caramel marshmallows... you'll be crying until next year. Of course if you can't make it to the shop, there's an online store ready to take your order. Consider a monthly box, delivered directly to your door. And if you've trained your cat properly, you may not even have to get out of bed to enjoy the deliciousness.
