We are resuming curbside pickups this week with a new menu and a better perspective. This is a small start, and by no means the end, but for the month of June will be donating a portion of our profits to different organizations supporting BIPOC. This week we will be donating to an organization helping promote the Black LGBTQ voice in Chicago. We will link them in our stories if you wish to donate, as well. To-go reservations are available through our website: elskerestaurant.com. Thank you so much for your continued support!! @ Elske
