Tumans Restaurant and Bar: once famous for special muffins

Tumans, formerly named Tumans Alcohol Abuse Center (seriously), used to boast two-dollar Guinness and three-dollar black and tans. This was the dive of all dives, where often your only seat was an empty keg and the tables where old industrial cable spindles.

There was "the tamale guy" and "the bread lady" who roamed the Wicker Park and Ukraine Village neighborhoods peddling her artisan breads and special (wink) muffins. I will not confirm or deny the validity of the "special" claims, but I always had a good time when she came around.

The old Tumans closed in 2002 and re-opened in 2003, with a refurbished look and a kitchen.
