During a trip to Chicago for the Democratic National Convention, Liz finds her way to the traditionally Mexican neighborhood of Pilsen to eat her way through two fabulous establishments. It’s a tasty mission to discover what stories these restaurants tell about food, community, identity, and how their owners would stage their version of TV’s “The Bear.”
