According to a recent article from Block Club Chicago , Parachute HiFi aims to open its doors sometime this summer at 3500 N Elston Avenue.
A representative of Parachute HiFi was not immediately available for commentary upon What Now Chicago’s request.
According to the article, “Award-winning chefs and couple Beverly Kim and Johnny Clark, who recently closed Parachute after 10 years, announced their next “album” for the space: Parachute HiFi, a new concept that brings music and food to the forefront.”
“The bar and restaurant will have a professional sound system, curated vinyl on the speakers, and nightly music programs, the owners wrote. The owners were not immediately reachable Monday but told the Tribune the menu will be simpler, more affordable, and accessible than Parachute’s.”
“And fans of Parachute’s famous bing bread can celebrate: It will return. Other Korean and American dishes will appear on the menu, including new renditions of popular Parachute items, the owners wrote.”
“Creative cocktails, ‘sool’ and our wine list will embrace … wines from small producers that demonstrate their regional production methods from around the world,” the owners wrote on social media. “And there will be community — a realm for guests to connect over great food and music, and to get lost in for a few brief moments.”
“Clark has become a music collector and wants the bar to emulate vinyl cafes in Seoul, which has seen a rise in LP bars and cafes in recent years. Many are complete with private listening rooms, themed music, and a rotating brunch menu — all with thousands of records to choose from.”
