After an exhaustive — and, if we do say so ourselves, riveting — chronicle of the process of opening a restaurant (who knew that ice cream scoop washers were so necessary?), Eddie Lakin’s Evanston burger joint Edzo’s has officially opened its doors. Ed writes that they’re having a little bit of first-day jitters, “the inevitable cluster-fucks and ticket confusion, but the bottom line is that the freshly ground beef is turning out such awesomely flavorful, juicy burgers that all is forgiven.” [Chicagomatic]
