Lilac Tiger
Did you get a glimpse of the eclipse? Blink and you missed it — much like Chicago’s way-too-brief spring. All that means is folks need to make better plans to properly savor ramps and all the season has to offer. The Eater 38 is here to help.
This collection of Chicago’s best restaurants provides answers to the classic question: “Where would you dine if you had one night in the city?” The list recognizes some all-time greats and restaurants that have pushed culinary boundaries. This list is for locals who want to make the most out of their nights. It’s also for visitors unfamiliar with the city.
The spring update brings four new restaurants into the fold. There’s a South Side favorite that is once again getting the attention it deserves in Bridgeport. A daring bar with unique cocktails and a killer casual menu of South Asian bites including an incredible mushroom dish. In Lincoln Park, a tasting menu restaurant attempts to push back at consumer culture — if that’s even possible. And in the West Loop, a Korean couple runs an omakase restaurant with some of the best sushi in the city.
It’s almost time to put away those heavy coats, Chicago. Enjoy.
