If you're sensitive and can't take a joke, then don't go to this restaurant


At first glance, Chicago's Ed Debevic's looks much like many of the Windy City's other tourist restaurants: Waiters and waitresses in flashy costumes serving up tasty burgers, hot dogs, salads, milkshakes and fries. But take a closer look at it's website and you'll discover their service is anything but ordinary.

Servers at Ed Debevic's are known for their rudeness and snarky remarks. However, they are paid to be cheeky, and would likely get fired from the restaurant if they were nice to customers. This waitress, for example, has taken customer service to a whole new level. Some might deem it gimmicky. I prefer to use the term "theatrical."

Enigmatic Shapes and Psychedelic Patterns

To say that I love Sanagi 's work is an understatement. Looking at her art feels sort of therapeutic, and I find her drawings refreshingly intricate. They're trippy, psychedelic, and resemble something that you might see under a microscope. Not much is Googleable about Sanagi, but that's fine. There aren't many artists these days that still pull off the whole mysterious vibe, so I commend her for that. By the way... they're all hand-drawn with pen and ink.

James DeRosso's ceramic monsters

I really like these whimsical ceramic creatures by James DeRosso. Yes, they have bulging eyes and toothy grins, but they're not scary at all. The Portland-based artist started making cute monsters while he was a student to jokingly create gargoyle-like guardians for the kiln. After other students kept taking his quirky little figures, he realized there was a market for them. "I'm enjoying the whole monster making niche," James says. "It's amazingly gratifying to be doing ceramics full time and especially to be a teacher introducing kids to the joy of clay." Be sure to visit his website and like his Facebook page for the latest monster news.

The Mystical World of Akiya Kageichi

Sometimes I go to tumblr, type in a random word or phrase and see what catches my eye. When I found Akiya Kageichi's blog and it began to load, my eyes were dazzled by the expertly rendered illustrations. They're mystical, chaotic, ominous and deliciously so. Well, never mind what I have to say, the work speaks for itself.
