The Clutch sign
While waiting for my car to be washed a Bert’s on Grand and Ogden, I had a few minutes to pop over and snap a few shots at Clutch, a cute new car part-themed bar/restaurant with a quaint outdoor patio that was raring to go (sorry) at noon on Sunday. I unfortunately didn’t have time to sit down for geared-up goat cheese, souped-up steak or the clutch dog; a deep fried hot dog with spicy-mustard-onion relish, or the slew of other interesting items like fish-tailing tacos and a bacon-cheddar grilled cheese sandwich. Nothing on the menu is over $10, and they even import neighboring Coalfire pizzas to your table. The place is small, but looks promising and I’ll be back to try some of the grub. And what would normally be a sign that would make me cringe with deep-seeded agitation turns out to be a pleasantly creative menu detail. 459 N. Ogden, 312.526.3450
