Carol Watson (Milk & Honey) is behind this carryout-focused Italian deli and espresso bar in Wicker Park. The pastry case showcases deli meats and cheeses, the shelves are stocked with Italian groceries (perfect for prepping pasta dishes at home) and the menu lists panini and gourmet sub sandwiches such as prosciutto di Parma with arugula, chopped Calabrian peppers and Parmesan-truffle butter. Morning commuters heading to the nearby Damen "L" stop can snag grab-and-go breakfast fare such as Nutella and banana on ciabatta, oatmeal and Watson's popular house-made Milk & Honey granola.
