New Restaurant Opened by SSM Culinary School Grad



Cafe 101, operated by Chef Bert Gates, a graduate of the South Side Mission Culinary Arts Training School has opened on Prospect Avenue, just north of Forrest Hill Avenue in Peoria.

The menu is eclectic and fun and perfect for a summer lunch. I mean where else can you get a Tilapia burger or Caprese tomato flatbread pizza and wash it down with a speckled lemonade?

The prices are reasonable - a half-pound angus burger with all the trimmings and a heap of fries or slaw will set you back just $5.50.

Cafe 101 resides in the former Maria's Tea Room, which enjoyed a good run in this location until recently. Their hours are Monday through Saturday from 6 am to 8 pm

Stop by and say hey to Bert!
