About this Article

A longtime Palatine staple won't be going to the auction block, after all. New owners Walt Oswald and Jim Iuorio bought the struggling Brandt's Little Cafe and hope to re-brand, refurbish and reopen the burger and rib joint next month as Brandt's of Palatine. "We both love Brandt's and didn't want to see it go away," Oswald said.
