KVG and I had a final exam for our rotation in the intensive care unit (ICU). There was a multiple choice test at 7AM followed by individual skills exams throughout the day. We happened to draw the shortest of many straws, making us wait until the 3:30 and 4PM time slots. It was freezing cold out that day, and I wasnt about to trek back to Lincoln Park between tests. We both headed to Arifs place to warm up, make him get out of bed, and go to brunch with us. Despite our enthusiasm, we could only muster up enough strength to brave the five degree weather around the corner. Thats how we ended up at The Local Root Cafe.

Logistics
Local Root filled in for the empty spot left by what was Tutto Pronto next to that BYOB mani/pedi place and the Starbucks. The space is open and welcoming with a ton of space for a decent weekend brunch crowd, but given that we were there on a Friday morning all we had to compete with were the cafe bums nursing a big coffee mugs in the corner.

Its easy to provide quick service when no one else is eating in the restaurant. The whole restaurant from the name to menu screams local sourced ingredients. Given that, the cost is totally reasonable. Most dishes are in the $10 range which is what you pay pretty much anywhere for brunch in the city.

The Food
Theyve got a decent amount of specialty drink options, but KVG had just finished making tea before we went to brunch. Arif went for the Biscuits and Gravy, KVG got the Ham and Cheese Quiche, and I got the Mushroom Quiche. The biscuits were coated in gravy and topped with ground lamb. The meat was tasty and the biscuits were somewhat light and fluffy. Still, I couldnt help but notice the plate looked like vomit when it came out. Both quiches had near perfect crusts. They made a flaky mess with each bite and were not short on the butter. The filling was problematic with both. It was loose and runny. The sauce on top was broken when it came out. It was salty and not the least bit creamy. As far as the potatoes went, they were like bland and soft. Interestingly, they came with a side of local, organic ketchup (which was also runny and bland). Id give it a break, but Heinz makes an organic ketchup that doesnt taste like red water.



Overall
Between the lamb sausage on the biscuits and gravy and the crust on the quiche there were some flashes of genius on our plates, but I couldnt get past the overarching flaws in each dish. I appreciate the local sourcing and reasonable pricing of ingredients, but Im not heading back anytime soon. Im giving Local Root 1.5 out of 5 Pearls.

Once the network is completed and utp lan cable has been installed on each PC unit, but it does not end here. You need to setup the LAN network configuration so that each unit is connected and can communicate with each other into one unified network. To setup the LAN Network Configuration you have to adjust IP Gateway given by ISP to every PC unit of the network.

We begin with a sample of internet cafe network from the image above. To create a network such as the internet café as the picture above require relatively cheaper. Because we will be using a hub as the central of the network. while to do bandwidth management, we just do it on the mikrotik router from the ISP. So we do not need additional router.
For example, IP Gateway provided by your ISP is 192.168.1.1 and IP address on the network the unit will be determined as follows:

Before that, first we must to setup the Computer name on each unit configuration. Then equate the workgroup on each unit of the network, give the name as you want. Right click my computer icon and then click Properties, go to the settings Change. In the System Properties at the tab of computer name, click Change. Youll go to the Computer Name/Domain Changes window.



On the windows XP not too different, you should find the settings Computer Name and Domain. Click Ok and you must restart your computer. After that we will set the IP address on each pc unit that have connected to the network.

As the picture above we will use the internet protocol version 4 (IPv4) properties to configure the IP address, default gateway, and DNS server address. Right click on the Local Area Connection of the LAN interface card that used (active). And the do the setup as shown as the right picture above.

Once finished you can test the connection of on each PC unit of the network, pinging on each IP address. Use the application windows command prompt (CMD) to perform testing of network and Internet access from the ISP.

Ping is used to get respond of another pc unit on the network that has been previously configured the IP address. Ping-t is used to check for the stability of the connections at time.
for example
After all working properly you can try it yourself through the browser to test the internet connection of the internet café network that we have created. For more details lets see this article video! Good luck!
