A view of my lunch today at Valois, which was open-face hot turkey served with mashed potatoes and a side of corn niblets.

A view of the Valois Cafeteria building on the south side of Chicago in Hyde Park.

Inspired by an old episode of ‘Parts Unknown’, I finally made it over to the Valois Cafeteria in Hyde Park this afternoon and it felt comforting to enjoy a meal inside of a southside restaurant that Anthony Bourdain also once sat in. #ValoisChicago #PartsUnknown #disspics
