Things I’ve been loving lately

This space is always evolving — shaped by what I’m trying, tasting, booking, and bookmarking lately. Think of it as a rotating collection of things that caught my attention and refused to leave.

Restaurants I can’t stop thinking about, cafés worth revisiting, and dishes that deserve a second round. If it’s here, it left an impression.

Chicago neighborhoods, weekend trips, and destinations that surprised me in the best way. Travel, near and far — always with notes.

The random finds, small routines, and internet rabbit holes that quietly become part of everyday life. Some temporary, some permanent.
