They have of veg option on their CRW menu - with a veggie egg roll, a really good pad thai with tofu and vegetables and desserts that are unique, fun, and actually delicious.
A great pick if you want variety and a lively downtown vibe! Great for a girls night or even a date night.

We used here in Chicago and Iโm honestly always blown away by their attention to detail. We have used them before for deep cleans too. Every corner, surface and little forgotten spot was spotless. They left the place in such great shape that I felt completely confident handing the keys back.
If youโre moving, renting, or just want your space to feel brand new again, this is the kind of clean that gives instant peace of mind. Highly recommend ๐งผ๐ค
Check them out!

If youโre in need of post-holiday self care in Chicago like I was, this is for you! After a very busy holiday season of hosting and cooking, I was craving a true reset.
Spending the day unwinding at the Intercontinental Spa on Mag Mile - with a facial, massage and all-day access to the fitness center, pool, and saunaโwas exactly what I needed. It was calm, elevated and everything post-holiday self-care should feel like.
The best part? I booked it at a discount on Groupon, so this level of relaxation actually feels doable without breaking the bank! They have so many great deals, and I highly recommend checking them out and booking an experience for you, or you and a loved one, to reset and recharge.
Use the link in my bio to book a discounted experience and treat yourself the right way this 2026 season!
Self care is on with โจ

Checked out this new spot and loved the vibes. Perfect for a cozy date night, especially in this cold!
For vegetarians: the vegetable salad, arancini, rigatoni alla vodka and margherita pizza are very good and worth a try. And, donโt skip dessert because the pistachio cheesecake is a must.
Send this to someone you want to go with and check it out! Also, mention DolceNikki for 15% off your order now through end of Jan!

The dark chocolate peppermint cookie and the peppermint mocha at were both so delicious. I actually loved that the peppermint mocha wasnโt too sweet, the flavors were so well balanced. Here for a limited time only!
Check it out this holiday season at a Levain near you and send to someone you think would love this.
