Cafe Chismosa replaces Almanac in NoLibs
About a month back, Cafe Chismosa (900 N. Fourth St.) replaced Almanac Market at Fourth and Poplar. Chef/owner Jugo Stevcic is running Chismosa as a café in the a.m., with eggy sandwiches/dishes, seasonal scones and One Village Coffee. By lunch/dinner, it becomes a Latin-inspired BYO operation, with tortas (the "El Cerdo," with carnitas, Granny Smith apple, queso blanco and an apple/lemon gravy for dipping), quesadillas and simple ceviches. Here's the full menu (PDF). For what it's worth: En espanol, Chismosa is slang for a prolific female smack-talker, so ready your best neighborhood gossip to share with Stevcic as he fixes your smoked scallop and quinoa avocado salad. Hours are Tuesday to Saturday from 8 to 8 and Sunday from 9 to 3 (closed Mondays).
