Bib Gourmand: good quality, good value cooking
Flaunting a fantastic location, right by the McCormick Place Convention Center, the design of this dining room conceived by Chef Stephen Gillanders' wife, Seon Kyung Yuk, is cool and chic. The space is vast and ceilings are sky high. A glass façade ensures that it's engulfed by natural light.
Over in the kitchen, the chef is the kingpin and may be found shuffling between the wood-burning oven and serene counter. His cooking is straightforward, exemplary, and poised for sharing. Puffy bread with truffle, garlic, and cheese; or a wedge salad with tomatoes and boquerones deliver on all flavor fronts. Close at hand are such hearty pastas as bucatini with spicy pomodoro. Save room for dessert, as Pastry Chef Tatum Sinclair is perpetually turning out delightful treats.
