Call ahead, especially on Friday. Get the duck 3 ways. Or, bring a large group and call ahead for the duck carved at your table. Drink a Tsingtao!
Try the Rau câu from our 100 Best list: Stiff coconut custard flavored with grassy pandan leaf and poured into a skinned coconut shell to set.
Both the four-ounce griddled burgers and eight-ounce charbroiled ones are excellent. So are the fries dusted w/ truffle salt & Parmesan. Don't miss ultra-creamy "Five Dollar" milk shakes that cost $4. Daha fazlasını oku.
Hands down some of the best bahn mi in Chicago. We find ourselves taking advantage of the buy five, get one free special more than we should.
Don’t miss the corned-beef hash: heavy on the smoky-salty beef, easy on the potatoes, flecked with fresh herbs and topped with two perfectly poached eggs.
Try the Koubideh Combo. Hands down the best Kababs in the city! Both their dill and saffron rices are moist and delicious too!
Get the chicken makhani (aka butter chicken). The sauce is amazing...so smooth and velvety!
Lomo Salatado (ID'd on the menu as their #1 Best Seller) is indeed very fine; also recommended: Papa Rellena and a Inca Cola Daha fazlasını oku.
Best value for Indian-Pakistani food in Chicago. Stunningly inexpensive, deliciously mouth watering. Usually spend no more than $10 for 3 days worth of food!
Go on a Sunday for dim sum in the banquet hall upstairs. Don't miss the shrimp fun rolls, pork shumai with scallions, chinese broccoli or red bean sesame balls. Order the balls fresh from the kitchen.
This has GOT to be the best sushi in the city. Tell Sushi Mike what you like (or don't like) and he'll give you sushi you've never had before and won't get anywhere else. BYOB and always super fresh
We have been devoted to this place for 5 years. Especially love the peppered beef and basil chicken.
This is a FANTASTIC restaurant. Nasser makes use of all the traditional spices and all the food is top notch. Order the salad sampler, the hummus (in any form) and either shawerma or the kufta.
Start with straightforward pajun; its texture is just what we want in a scallion pancake. Among entrées, domi stands out. Daha fazlasını oku.
HOME of THE VIKING BREAKFAST. Ask for extra Ligonberries. My favorite memory, is during the Christmas Season and a Lukefish X-mas Tale was theatrically told to all.
Popular with locals and visitors, Chicago’s Home of Chicken & Waffles serves soul food up in a stylish dining room. Daha fazlasını oku.
The fries (fried in beef fat), shakes or sides, like anchovy-draped Caesar salad, steal the show from the burger. Patties are cooked only “medium plus,” leaving them juiceless and disappointing.
Burgers are cooked to a nice medium. Opt for aged cheddar, bacon and egg toppings, and be sure to add the rustic, skin-on fries. Try the Lemon Squeeze, a blend of fro-yo, strawberries and lemonade. Daha fazlasını oku.
Get the Garlic Fries: Skin-on and fried, they get that rich hue of brown, rendering them crispy on the outside and pillowy on the inside, tossed in a perfect amount of fresh minced garlic. Daha fazlasını oku.
Go to Hopleaf Bar and order their mussels. I never had mussels before and when I did I fell in love, specifically for Hopleaf's...nom nom nom :)
Try the basque cake from our 100 Best list: Thankfully, this warm cake with a golden crust and soft middle is the only dessert pastry chef Amanda Rockman keeps on her menu year-round.
Try the Jucy Lucy from our 100 Best list: Oh, man, we do not need to remind ourselves how good this juicy, greasy, medium-rare burger oozing Velveeta cheese is.
Go on Wednesdays for the 45-day dry-aged blend of Wagyu and prime rib, made for Bad Apple by New York butcher Pat LaFrieda. This is a steak disguised as a burger. http://tmoutchi.us/YmTIHi Daha fazlasını oku.
