LICOLNWOOD, Ill. — The founder of an award-winning steakhouse in Lincolnwood has died, around the same time a fire damaged the restaurant on Wednesday.
WBBM Newsradio’s Regine Schlesinger reports, around 2:30 a.m., Myron Freedman died at the age of 95.
A short time later, a fire broke out in the storeroom of Myron & Phil’s, the steakhouse and seafood restaurant he and his brother founded 43 years ago at 3900 W. Devon Av. Freedman’s son, Mark, called it an eerie coincidence.
