This suburb along the Burlington Northern train line (16 miles west of the Loop) has blossomed into a surprise destination for inventive dining. New additions include:
Prasino This organic, green cafe offers breakfast, lunch and dinner, with as much attention paid to the Niman Ranch beef short rib as to the lobster-stuffed avocado topped with mango salsa. And despite the upscale atmosphere, kids are as welcome as food critics. (708) 469-7058; prasino.com
Di Nico's Pizza The aroma wafting out of the front doors of this tiny storefront reminds us of New York pizza parlors. But these slices are even bigger, about a quarter of a medium pie. After you've tried the vegetable panini and the house-made seasonal gelato, you'll be a fan of these fresh, cheap eats. (708) 352-9800; dinicospizza.com
