Proof That Evolution Exists
THE COFFEE STUDIO
As recently as early 2008, it seemed as if coffeehouses were determined to carry on with their Lisa Loeb–playing, patchouli-scented ways, until we all died from some terrible disease embedded in their thrift-store couches. But then Miguel and Lee Corrina Cano opened the Coffee Studio, and with it the minds of coffeehouse doubters everywhere. Working with a specific vision—they call it “warm modern”—the couple used their design backgrounds to create a sleek and sunny space full of natural materials, clean lines—and not a single vintage fabric in sight. The result is a place for those who have gotten out of their Allen Ginsberg phase but still want to be with other like-minded people—which means those who just want to drink a good cup of coffee. 5628 N Clark St, 773-271-7881.—David TamarkinCritics’ Picks: Promo King | The Please Don’t Go Award | Most Unpretentious Pretentious Bar | The Best Way to Use Your Noodle Award | Biggest twits | The Comeback Kid | The Urban Oasis Award | The Lifetime Achievement Award | Best Elbow Rubbing | Best Place to Ogle Women | The Bigfoot Award | We’d like to thank the economy | Proof That Evolution Exists | A Blog-o You Can Trust | Recession-era reads | The Viagra Award for Staying Power | Best Revival Act | Thanks for the memories | Best Extra Value Meal Photo gallery | Readers’ Choice Awards | Critics’ Picks | Video from the ceremony

Cookwolf.blogspot.com is a nifty site, even for those of us who can't boil water. If you loved Emily's work in the Trib -- and who didn't? -- you'll eat up this blog with a spoon. I'd read it even if I didn't happen to know Emily. The writing sparkles, and the pictures pop. Who knew raw vegetables could look so sexy?
