Other Details:
A great place to experience a fine dining experience served with a light-hearted attitude. Located in a unique space in downtown Evanston, beneath the Union Pacific Railroad station. Delicious food, a welcoming atmosphere and our friendly staff make Chef's Station a great place to plan your next night out.Many acquaintances felt I should be in the restaurant business, but instead I started in real estate, contracting field work for one of the largest builders in the western suburbs of Chicago. In the early seventies, with a group of friends, I started purchasing property. Then, for no good reason, we also purchased a small railroad in North Carolina, which we owned and operated until the eighties. That was when I finally found the perfect way to enter the field I had the most passion for.In 1985 I developed an environmental theater designed around a dinner, and together with a partner, opened the Set Gourmet Theater. The concept was heralded by the media - on television, on the radio, in newspapers and magazines. We did not have a single bad review. Accolades were centered on the food as well as the play, which was written specifically for production at the Set by Emmy and Peabody award winner Robert Benedetti.After a successful run, I left the Set in 1992, and after many requests I started catering, which I built in to quite a successful venture - as I loved both drama and food it was a natural fit. Then, in 1997, I found a unique space in downtown Evanston, Illinois, underneath the Union Pacific Railroad station. I could not resist building the restaurant I now own, Chef's Station. After 14 years of operation, we are one of the most popular on the North Shore and a neighborhood mainstay.
