Guests can now order from the Concept's menu featuring freshly made hummus, falafel, shawarma, mezze and an array of plates and pitas. Taim's offerings cater to a wide range of dietary preferences and needs, including vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free options, ensuring there is something for everyone. It also offers catering with customizable packages for groups of all sizes. 

"A key part of taim's mission is to slow down, nourish the body with healthy options and gather around the table to organically connect with one another. We're excited to finally be able to share this opportunity in our very own backyard," Majewski added. 

Craveworthy Kitchen at Hayden Hall is a 25,000-square foot space with modern furnishings, comfortable seating areas and food court-style bays featuring a selection of Craveworthy's culinary concepts, including Krafted Smashburgers, Lucky Cat Poke Co., Pastizza Pizza + Pasta, Scramblin' Eds and The Budlong Southern Chicken.

Easily accessible by Chicago Transit Authority trains, it is surrounded by top-tier universities like DePaul and Roosevelt, bustling corporate offices and the City's renowned cultural landmarks, including the Art Institute, Grant Park and the Symphony Orchestra.
