Bio's

Chef/Partner Stephen Dunne



Stephen grew up just outside Detroit and began cooking at 15 years old. He eschewed culinary school for real world work experience, heading to New Orleans after graduating high school to apprentice under chef Kevin Graham at the Windsor Court Hotel and Graham's. He has since rounded out his professional experience and defined his cuisine working in several celebrated Wolfgang Puck restaurants (Spago, Postrio...), under restaurateurs Drew Nieporent and Larry Stone at Rubicon in San Francisco, and most recently collaborating with chef/owner Michael Kornick at Chicago's MK. Stephen refers to his cuisine as "New American", embracing the multifarious nature of our country's great melting pot, borrowing literally from a myriad of ethnic styles. Stephen lives in Chicago's Roscoe Village neighborhood and is also Chef/Partner of Dine & Drink, Inc.'s newest destination, Paramount Room.


Managing Partner Jon Young



Over the last decade, Jon has successfully managed restaurants for Rich Melman's Lettuce Entertain You, Inc. (Maggiano's Little Italy, P.J. Clarke's, Cafe Ba Ba Reeba), and restaurateur Alex Dana's Rosebud Restaurants (Centro, La Rosetta).

Jon & wife Helene Albert opened Kitsch'n (2005 W. Roscoe, Chicago) in late 98' when a longtime diner in Roscoe Village, just blocks from their home, became available. Working quickly, they converted it into a fun & funky 1970 's retro diner serving up comfort food with a gourmet twist. Kitsch'n has since become a Chicago cult icon, and has been featured in Bon Appetit, on The Food Channel and The Travel Channel for their delicious food and unique atmosphere, winning numerous awards and accolades. With the addition of a second location (Kitsch'n River North located at 600 West Chicago Avenue in the historic Montgomery Ward Warehouse Building), comfort food and 1970's fashion, design and culture have been getting more popular ever since. Most recently they've created Dine & Drink, Inc. to oversee operations at all of their restaurants, including their newest venture Paramount Room. Jon lives with his wife and two children in Chicago's Roscoe Village neighborhood.
