Chicago restaurant honors Simone Biles’ Olympic triumph with bold menu tribute

Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens share a moment of celebration at Maple & Ash in Chicago.

Simone Biles, the celebrated gymnast who recently secured three gold medals and one silver at the 2024 Paris Olympics, continues to be honored wherever she goes. 

Over the weekend, Biles and her husband, Jonathan Owens, visited Maple & Ash, a well-known restaurant in Chicago, where the establishment prepared a special surprise for the Olympic champion.

Upon their arrival on Saturday evening, the restaurant presented Biles with a customized menu that boldly declared, “Olympic f---in champion” on the cover. This unique tribute was captured in a photo that Owens shared on his Instagram story.

Although the image has since expired due to Instagram's 24-hour story limit, it quickly garnered attention and admiration from fans.

Later in the day, both Biles and Owens shared more moments on Instagram, including a picture of them kissing on the sidelines of a game. Biles also posted selfies from a suite at the stadium, continuing to share glimpses of her life post-Olympics.

Earlier that Saturday, Biles made headlines for attending Owens’ preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals, where she was spotted wearing a Green Bay Packers jacket. 

The jacket was custom-designed and featured photos of Owens from his time with the Packers in 2023, showcasing her support for her husband in a personal and meaningful way.
