    Does anyone know whether Ben Moy's restaurant "The Bird" ever returned? Its last location was Melrose Park and I think it closed in the mid-90's.

    I remember going there before he moved to Melrose Park. The previous, quirky location was in the back of the Skokie Swift El Station on Dempster. Food was outstanding.

    "as of yet."

    You're optimistic!

    You are right. It has been at least 12 years!

    I aprenticed with chef moy in the 70's and some in the 80's. He is truly a master. I would like to find him and thank him for his training. Does any body know where he is?
