A Veteran Chicago Chef Is Sparking a Culinary Revolution in Suburban Highwood
Briefly

Chef Todd Stein's move to open Deere Park in Highwood reflects his career evolution. Partnering with childhood friend Josh Kaplan, Stein now enjoys true ownership in an operation, which allows him creative freedom and the ability to avoid Chicago traffic.

Stein, inspired by his mentor, aims to create a comfortable dining experience for various occasions, enhancing the suburban dining landscape.
Stein explains, "Why not make my life a little easier while doing what I love?" His new ownership at Deere Park allows him flexibility and creativity.
