ON THE COVER: World-renowned Chef Robert Gadsby brings next-level dining to Barrington with Restaurant Noe. His first solo project as chef and owner, opening Noe offers a pivotal moment for this master chef to fully express his vision: “My aim is to provide a unique and memorable dining experience by creating dishes that are both visually stunning, healthy, and flavorful, combining culinary influences from my extensive travels. Dining at Noe should move, excite, and seduce your palate. You should be dazzled as well as enjoy a fulfilling meal.” Images: Linda M. Barrett Photography.

On May 7, 2025, Penny Kazmier introduced Don Thompson as the new BADC Citizen of the Year at Barrington’s White House. He attended this annual dinner meeting of the Barrington Area Development Council last year as Penny’s guest. This year, she knew he had been nominated and accepted for the award—but he declined her invitation. Yet somehow Penny persuaded him to attend, and that night, she introduced him as the Citizen of the Year to his friends and colleagues, and many leaders who attended.
