Our Story
Chez Adele is a vibrant and innovative restaurant located on the Northside of Chicago, founded by Bart Kabore in 2025. The idea for Chez Adele was born during Bart’s time completing his master’s degree when he was inspired by his mother’s cooking. His parents frequently visited, and his mom would often be found in the kitchen, preparing traditional meals. Bart wanted to help, stepping into the kitchen to take the lead in cooking. This ignited his deep passion for food and the magic of creating delicious dishes, and his interest in hospitality grew as he traveled the world for the United Nations. Bart had the privilege of experiencing diverse cuisines and unique styles of hospitality, which ultimately led him to the realization that food, while universal, can be a powerful bridge between cultures.
Chez Adele represents the culmination of Bart’s journey in the food industry and his appreciation for cultural diversity. The restaurant stands out by offering a fresh and exciting take on smash burgers, blending American, African, and other cultural culinary influences to create a unique dining experience. At Chez Adele, everything is made to order, ensuring that each dish is fresh and bursting with flavor. The menu includes smash burgers, sandwiches, wings, kebabs, and fish and shrimp tacos, all thoughtfully crafted with a distinct twist on traditional favorites.
What sets Chez Adele apart from competitors is the fusion of diverse cultural flavors. While smash burgers are a classic American staple, Chez Adele’s twist incorporates rich African, Asian, Mexican, and other cultural elements, elevating the experience into something new and exciting. Each meal is crafted with love and care, with Bart Kabore personally overseeing the kitchen to ensure the highest quality and authenticity in every dish.
Chez Adele is not just a restaurant; it’s a celebration of diverse cultures and flavors. The goal is to create a warm, inviting atmosphere where each meal feels like a special occasion, bringing people together to enjoy delicious, internationally inspired cuisine. The unique combination of American, African, and other cultural influences gives customers an opportunity to embark on a culinary journey without ever leaving Chicago. Whether you're enjoying a smash burger, savoring African plantains, biting into Mexican tacos, or indulging in Asian dumplings, Chez Adele promises an unforgettable experience with every bite.
At its core, Chez Adele is about hospitality, community, and the joy of sharing meals with others. With Bart Kabore’s expertise and passion for cooking, Chez Adele is set to become a beloved gem in the Chicago food scene, offering an international dining experience that’s both accessible and unforgettable.
