Swank bank?
Sometimes, you've gotta have a deep-fried Twinkie at 3 a.m.We understand. Just don't go looking for one in Wicker Park anymore.
Swank Frank, beloved late-night purveyor of fried Twinkies and other not-so-swank post-bar food, has closed its doors, butcher-papered its windows and hung out signs announcing a move to Logan Square. Word is that Bank of America will take over the prime space in the historic Flat Iron building. Too bad we don't typically crave a new money market account at 3 a.m.
That's only the half of it. Next door at Filter, the comment box on the counter next to espresso machine bears a note with an ominous request: "Here at Filter, you're all family. So help us out and tell us if you would move with us to Milwaukee and Ashland? Love, The Filter Staff."
We'll keep you posted. In the meantime, what do you think? Are you ready to move south with Filter? Will Swank Frank be the same when you have to cab your drunk ass over to Logan Square for a fried Twinkie?
