More Chicago restaurant recommendations – from my sister who’s lived in and around the Windy City for a long time:
· La Sardine (French/small) – http://www.lasardine.com/
Publican – a favorite of the chefs – large tables/communal eating
The Purple Pig – small but awesome food – small shared plates http://thepurplepigchicago.com/ (located on Mag Mile)
Night wood – very cool and hip in Pilsen – great food
Prosecco – great Italian http://ristoranteprosecco.com/home.html; Very good. nice quiet setting.
Frontera/Topolobambo –
Spiaggia Cafe. Very nice. A Barack and Michelle favorite (although they go to the main restaurant, not the cafe).
Sepia. Very good. http://sepiachicago.com/ (This one I was trying to remember last week while in Chicago – been to several times and liked.)
