Hilary’s Urban Eatery to Close?

While not a downtown establishment, the coolness of Hilary’s Urban Eatery has swanked up the corner of Division and Greenview on the near northwest side for years.

And they were just featured on Chicago Tonight, too (so I’ve heard, I haven’t bothered to watch since WTTW dumped Bob Sirott, have you?)

East Ukranian Village without HUE? What next? State Street without Marshall F-…oh wait…damn.
