About Papa-N-Son's

No one loves their food more than the people of Chicago and at the heart of it all is one of the richest immigration stories in the US. As immigrants from around the world settled into Chicago, each established their own ethnic neighborhoods. Greek Town was the largest and best-known urban community of Greeks in the United States for much of the early twentieth century, and was a large part of the Chicago cultural and culinary experience. It was even the birthplace of the gyro in the US. In the summer of 1980 the idea of then-mayor Jane Byrne, was to bring all of these cultures together in one event known as "The Taste of Chicago." This one-day event has since grown into a must-attend ten-day event located in Grant Park. Popular local food staples at The Taste include Chicago hot dogs, gyros, Italian Beefs, Maxwell Street Polish Sausage, and Greek Salads, all foods that capture the variety and history of the city's cultural diversity. Papa-N-Son's is bringing this Bite of Chicago to towns across America by creating a Chicago-style experience in local neighborhoods with a whole new fast-casual restaurant concept. With an interior d�cor that brings a little of that Hometown Chicago feel and a menu that combines Chicago favorites and home-made Greek recipes Papa-N-Son's offers something for everyone.

About Tin Drum Asia Cafe

Founded in 2003, Tin Drum was created to reflect the bustling street-side cafes found throughout Asia. With the limited service operating model of fast casual and the dining experience of full casual, Tin Drum Asia Cafe is setting a new standard for the Fast Casual Dining franchise model. We call it "Fresh Casual." Our menu carries bold and broad flavor profiles; all food is cooked fresh to order in an open kitchen; the food is delivered to the guest at their table rather than being picked up at a counter; all this taking place in an environment with an elevated decor meant to evoke a bustling Asian street market.
