No Bones Beach Club is a vegan restaurant in Wicker Park but also in Portland and Seattle. It originally began as a food truck in Seattle but now have expanded into Chicago. Vegan food isn’t all about boring salads. Their motto is “just because it’s vegan doesn’t mean it sucks” and I couldn’t agree more.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! We’re thankful for all the food we’re about to eat especially the PIES! We, (@topchicagoeats) and (@hangry_amy), begrudgingly (sarcasm) tasted pies from all over the city and created this list of their favorites!
The crisp, colorful leaves are falling off trees and Chicago temps are quickly dropping. That can only mean one thing…FALL! Fall has always been my favorite season so of course, we can’t forget about all the seasonal treats that come with sweater weather.
Katana is celebrating their one year anniversary! It is a popular Japanese restaurant, which originated in Los Angeles and opened last year here in Chicago. The kitchen is led by chef Jose Melendez and Rob Juan. The trendy, modern vibe of the restaurant really suits the River North neighborhood. Katana markets its original location in L.A. as “the place to be.” They are on the right path to accomplishing the same for Chicago as well.
Raisu opened in August 2017 in an unassuming location on Irving Park Road. Although they kept a low profile in the beginning, people are starting to notice the exceptional sushi they offer. Expect high quality fish that is beautifully presented.
Lollapalooza may be over, but the memories are not. Every year around this time, thousands of music lovers descend upon Grant Park. This past weekend, I joined in on all the fun. As a self-proclaimed music festival connoisseur and foodie, I go for both the music and food. …
As a food Instagrammer, I go to a lot of restaurants for brunch. After a while, brunch food can get repetitive. So I’m always looking for different cuisines and creative dishes that stand apart from the brunch norm. Ronero is the perfect spot.
Beatnik, the newest restaurant from the Bonhomme Hospitality Group, opened its doors this past summer in Ukrainian Village with Executive Chef Marcos Campos and Chef de Cuisine Joseph Hejtmanek heading the kitchen. While there’s been quite a few trendy restaurant openings in this area, Beatnik is unlike any other. From the wide array of cuisines to the décor, Beatnik is truly one-of-a-kind.
February is the sweetest time of the year…literally. From heart-shaped cookies to red velvet cake, there is no shortage of Valentine’s Day themed treats. Whether you prefer traditional seasonal favorites or creative one-of-a-kind treats, my list has you covered.
It’s one of my favorite times of the year… Choose Chicago‘s Chicago Restaurant Week. Over 370 restaurants participated this year with special prix fixe menus for brunch ($22), lunch ($33), or dinner ($44). Normally it runs for two weeks (this year: January 26-February 8) but they just announced they will be extending a few more days (until February 11 at select restaurants) to align with Chicago Theatre Week. Don’t miss your chance!
