Since 2014, her bylines and photography have appeared in the Chicago Tribune, Chicago Magazine, Chicago Sun-Times, and Block Club Chicago/DNAinfo Chicago, Only in Your State, and more. She has interviewed Dolly Parton, written about beloved diners along historic Route 66, visited the last Rainforest Cafe in the Illinois, and reviewed luxurious English manor-inspired hotels. Whether it's writing about a local gem or world-renowned establishment, Linze brings a heartwarming and historical perspective to each story, using facts, wit, and personal experience to impress upon readers the importance of culture, food, travel, and all things local. Her favorite destinations in Illinois include Starved Rock State Park, Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood, the charming small town of Sycamore, and historic Rosehill Cemetery. When she's not writing or photographing, Linze enjoys gardening, spending time with her husband and pets, cooking, baking, and grilling, and relaxing with trashy TV.
Illinois is full of not only amazing food, but some of the best bars and breweries in the Midwest. Particularly when I lived on the Far North Side of Chicago, I was surrounded by an abundance of diverse restaurants and nightlife offerings. The Andersonville neighborhood is known for its Swedish ancestry and its small, locally-owned shops on Clark Street — but it’s also known for being a dense residential area filled with young families. The stroller traffic, combined with vehicle and foot traffic, is enough to drive anyone nuts, but the charming area is worth it. But if you find yourself yearning for an adults-only restaurant in Andersonville, Chicago, look no further than Hopleaf — a beloved local haunt that offers the perfect 21 and over escape.
