Red Apple on the edge of Chicago is still open. I like the place once every two years or so, headcheese, beet salad, perogies, overly rich desserts, lots of heavy meat and starch. I'm a meat guy but skew toward salads at Red Apple.

I was the original poster in this thread, including pictures, I'd guess the offerings have not changed much though I have not been in a year.

There's a second location on the northwest side, so you can still go, but this still sucks. Development is just wreaking havoc on neighborhood mainstays.

Might have to hit up the now only location to eat my feelings.

I’ve always enjoyed my visits there.

Much better and fresher than many (all?) of the standard places and even the venerable...

Sawa's Old Warsaw Restaurant
9200 W Cermak Rd, Broadview

I have been meaning to try this for years. I better get to it!

Ah ok, so the one at 6500 N. Milwaukee is open, but the one at 3100 N. Milwaukee (Logan Square) is closed. That's good to know, I can plan an expedition out to Red Apple sometime this year.
