La Lupe Review

This little place is only a few blocks from the Italian Market and is adjacent to the famous Pat's and Geno's cheesesteakeries, but it couldn't be more authentic in its Mexican flavors. The proof of its authenticity: local Mexican-American families dine here on weekends. Hand-pressed tortillas cradle ingredients that are surprising for street food—huitlacoche (Mexican corn truffle), pickled pumpkin blossoms, salty queso fresco, and roasted slow-cooked goat. Try the enchiladas suizas, which drip with genuine Mexican cheese.

  • Big 10 campuses

    I thought it might be fun to try to visit all of the Big 10 campuses in a year (or thereabouts).

    Anyone have any suggestions for not-to-be-missed campus or area sites?

    Thanks for your help. Read more
