"""Greg Borzo, a prolific writer and historian, has gathered dozens of bygone eateries in a new and quite satisfying book titled "Lost Restaurants of Chicago" (The History Press). It offers, pardon the word but none other seems appropriate, a feast of memories. The good thing about having a guy like Borzo compile such a book is his enthusiasm and passion. The book is peppered with photos and neatly organized into 12 chapters, covering such areas as Ethnic Eateries, Sizzling Steakhouses and African American Restaurants. I have no doubt that most readers will find personal connections. And good memories. "" Chicago Tribune "

Synopsis
Chicago author, Greg Borzo, recalls the city's celebrated lost restaurants. Many of Chicago's greatest or most unusual restaurants are no longer taking reservations, but they're definitely not forgotten. From steakhouses to delis, these dining destinations attracted movie stars, fed the hungry, launched nationwide trends and created a smorgasbord of culinary choices. Stretching across almost two centuries of memorable service and adventurous menus, this book revisits the institutions entrusted with the city's special occasions. Noted author Greg Borzo dishes out course after course of fondly remembered fare, from Maxim's to Charlie Trotter's and Trader Vic's to the Blackhawk., Chicago author, Greg Borzo, recalls the city's celebrated lost restaurants.

    Received 11/29/25. Thank you for a very pleasant, smooth & quick transaction. The item was packaged well for shipping. It was in new condition as it was decribed. Department 56 always produced quality figurines. Considering this piece has been discontinued, the price was reasonable. I am well pleased with this transaction and I know I will enjoy the piece for years to come.

    Thanks 2 This Seller 4 Delivering An Item Exactly As It Was Pictured, & Described 2 B N. I Was Concerned At 1st, When Finding The Package N My Mail Box, As I Heard It Rattle, So, Not 2 Agrivate It Any Further, I Was Very Careful Upon Opening It, As I Found That The DVD Was Loose, & Not On The Hub Within The DVD Case. From My Past Xperiences, This Is Usually A Bad Sign, As The DVD's R Usually Scratched, But Luckily, This 1 Still Arrived N Xcellent Cond. I Highly Recommend This 'Saved' Seller! 👍

    Far and away the ugliest seller I have encountered in more than 20 years. (eBay tells me it's 21.) Sent a book described as good, but it was underlined IN INK from cover to cover!!! Mistakes can happen, but this seller ignored three emails, and when I submitted photos and asked for a full $21.39 refund for this worthless book, I was offered $4.99. She just wanted to get me irritated all over again. When eBay intervened and saw photos, a full refund was immediate. Avoid her like the plague!
