Where I Go Out
Croque monsieur
$$$, Outdoor Seating, French, Full Bar, Ravenswood
"The perfect summer patio food, and I recommend pairing it with a glass of Burgundy and a shot of chartreuse!"
Queso fundido
$$$, Happy Hour, Outdoor Seating, Mexican, Reservations, Full Bar, Near North Side
"It’s so cheesy and slightly spicy. Jalapeños, onion, shrimp, cheese, and hot tortillas? Can't go wrong there. Add a margarita and you’re set. Editor's note: this dish has a vegetarian-friendly option and the meat-option changes periodically."
"Deluxe" foccacia
$$$, Outdoor Seating, Wine Bar, Full Bar, Breakfast, New American, West Loop Gate
"Hot, gooey, salty truffle! I like it better than the much-lauded chorizo dates."
Rib tips
$$$, Bbq,
"This was my favorite food while I was at Kendall College (and on days when I ditched class!). In my opinion, it's the best barbecue around Chicago."
Miso ramen w/ pork cheek

"This is an awesome dish on a cold day. Santouka, located inside Mitsuwa Marketplace, is in the Chicago suburbs of Arlington Heights, but it's worth the drive!"
