Small Cheval Gets an Opening Date in Logan Square
The Logan Square location of Small Cheval, which replaces the Freeze — a beloved ice cream stand that closed in 2023 — has an opening date. Ownership announced the burger spot will debut on Monday, July 14, at 2815 W. Armitage Avenue.
The Freeze was around for 73 years, and in 2023, ownership sold to Hogsalt, the hospitality group behind Small Cheval, Bavette's, and Au Cheval. The company quickly incorporated the Freeze's name onto its ice cream menus. The name brings a lot to the community, and there was much concern late last month when the Freeze's iconic sign was briefly removed as construction crews worked.
Small Cheval is a spinoff of Au Cheval, which continues to serve one of Chicago's most popular burgers and is a popular tourist destination along Randolph Street in West Loop. The first Small Cheval debuted in 2015 in Bucktown, and the chain has expanded to several locations around the city and suburbs.

Sister Pie Sets Summer Pop-Up Schedule as Lauded Bakery Plots Next Move
is the James Beard Award-winning regional editor for Eater's Midwest region, and in charge of coverage in Chicago, Detroit, and the Twin Cities. He's a native Chicagoan and has been with Eater since 2014. Sister Pie popped up at the brewery the day before Sister Pie reopening for breakfast. The bakery will open again for breakfast on Tuesday, July 22, followed by lunchtime service on Friday, July 25. A staggered schedule will continue through early September with four Saturday appearances at Eastern Market mixed in. Ludwinski asserts this is no farewell tour. She says some of the online conjecture has amused and frustrated her. One person made a false assumption in asking her how retirement was treating her. The next two months should help shape her plans as she writes what she calls 'the final draft' of Sister Pie's future. Ludwinski is taking her time as the world faces uncertainty through federal tariffs and other variables that impact the cost of running a small business. Check out Sister Pie's summer schedule below. Tuesday, July 22: Breakfast at Sister Pie, 7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday, July 25: Lunch at Sister Pie, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, July 26: Eastern Market Tuesday, August 5: Breakfast at Sister Pie, 7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday, August 8: Lunch at Sister Pie, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, August 9: Eastern Market Tuesday, August 19: Breakfast at Sister Pie, 7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday, August 22: Lunch at Sister Pie, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, August 23: Eastern Market Tuesday, September 2: Breakfast at Sister Pie, 7:30 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday, September 5: Lunch at Sister Pie, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, September 6: Eastern Market

United Eye Premier League Proven Keeper as Onana Replacement
Manchester United Eye Premier League-Proven Talent in Summer Rebuild Shift in Strategy Under INEOS Manchester United appear to be pivoting in their recruitment strategy this summer, targeting players with proven Premier League pedigree, suggest reports from TeamTalk. The shortcomings of recent signings such as Jadon Sancho, Antony, Rasmus Højlund and Joshua Zirkzee, who dazzled abroad but have struggled domestically, have not gone unnoticed by the new regime led by INEOS. That change is evident in their serious pursuit of Aston Villa's World Cup-winning goalkeeper Emiliano Martínez. Advertisement Martínez on United's Radar TyC Sports journalist Gastón Edul, who is regarded as a trusted voice on Argentine football, has confirmed Manchester United are intensifying their efforts to land Martínez. The club appear ready to upgrade their goalkeeping ranks, with the Aston Villa man expected to replace André Onana should a deal be struck. 'Manchester United are making concrete moves for Emiliano 'Dibu' Martinez,' revealed Edul. 'They are seriously interested and he's a priority for Amorim. Aston Villa and Man Utd are already in talks. Negotiations still need to continue but as of now [Man Utd] are the club that has made the most progress for him and shown the greatest interest.' Reports suggest Villa may be open to letting Martínez go after a turbulent campaign, though his price tag of £40 million could prove a sticking point. With the keeper now 32, United are expected to negotiate a lower fee, but his experience and winning mentality may prove invaluable in a high-pressure environment. Premier League Familiarity Valued The shift towards players familiar with the English game appears strategic. INEOS want dependable performers who have already proven they can handle the physicality and intensity of Premier League football. The anticipated third bid for Brentford's Bryan Mbeumo and interest in Matheus Cunha further underlines that intent. Advertisement Summer Market Heats Up While talks progress for Martínez, Manchester United are also circling talents at Brighton and Villa beyond the Argentine. The club are showing ambition and pragmatism, and while past errors cannot be undone, the future may be shaped with smarter, experience-based recruitment. Our View – EPL Index Analysis As an excited Manchester United supporter, this shift in recruitment strategy feels long overdue. For years, the club's scattergun approach in the market has prioritised hype over consistency. Finally, we are seeing clear direction: players who have already done it in the Premier League are being targeted. Advertisement The pursuit of Emiliano Martínez speaks volumes. He is a proven winner, a vocal presence, and has the edge that Old Trafford's dressing room has lacked since the David de Gea era ended. While Onana showed improvement late last season, Martínez would bring a mentality and confidence that could galvanise the backline. At 32, some might worry about longevity, but United need leadership right now. The fee might be high, but what price do you put on stability in goal? If INEOS and Amorim can bring in someone like Martínez while also securing deals for players like Mbeumo and Cunha, there's real hope this rebuild could finally be built on solid ground rather than expensive illusions. Let's hope this is not just paper talk, but a summer that marks a new, smarter Manchester United.
