RALF LABOY AND MANNY KOOP

TITLE: Owners, Lake Street Barbering Co. MY NEIGHBORHOOD: Koop: “I’ve lived in Pilsen for a little over 5 years, and I can see why it’s become the hottest place in the city. Laboy: Humboldt Park. I love the diversity—especially with Logan Square being so close with all the bars and restaurants.” FAVORITE NEW SPOT: Koop: “Bar Siena (832 W. Randolph St., 312-492-7775; barsiena .com) in the West Loop, a 10-minute walk from the shop. The food is incredible, and my man Marko is usually behind the bar.” GO-TO SPOT: Laboy: “Revolution Brewing (2323 N. Milwaukee Ave., 773-227-2739; revbrew.com). Great bar food and amazing beer that’s brewed here in Chicago.” HIDDEN GEM: Koop: “Bacchanalia (2413 S. Oakley Ave., 773-254-6555; bacchanaliain chicago.com) in Pilsen. I’ve never been disappointed, and I can get the best steak in Chicago there. Homemade cannoli too!” AWESOME ARCHITECTURE: Koop: “I absolutely love the gargoyles throughout the city, and I can’t get enough of the columns and statues on the older buildings.” SPRINGTIME IN THE CITY: Laboy: “Cubs!” Koop: “I like the different fashion each season brings; I don’t think I could ever do 80 degrees and sunny every single day of my life.”
