I’ll try their Cajun Boudin Balls made with crispy pork liver and a rice sausage fritter, cayenne mayonnaise, gratins (cheeses), and piccalilli (chopped pickle and spice relish), followed by their delicious-sounding Southern Skillet Cheddar Cornbread with scallions, cheddar, and pickled jalapeños. Known for their decadent and exciting takes on Cajun food, Big Jones will be offering a Mardi-Gras-inspired menu for restaurant week. 111 North Carpenter, Chicago 312.421.2800 Big Jones (Andersonville) For dessert, I can’t wait for the Pecan Tart, served with house-made vanilla ice cream. I’ll follow that with an entree of Corned Duck and Black Truffles, which features popcorn grits, some maple pork belly, and a duck egg. Le Sardine is a French restaurant known for their large portions and rustic touches, so for starters, I’ll be trying their Courge appetizer, a blend of raw acorn squash, yellow squash, basil, hazelnuts, and shaved foie gras.
From the last dinners of people executed in Chicago (!!!) to raw squash and alligator, I present the Uncorkd list of Chicago Restaurant Week 2015 picks. Restaurant week spans from January 30-Feb 12 this year, and with over 250 participating restaurants with lunch for $22 and dinner for $33-$44, I hope that you’ll be starting the week hungry.īecause there were so many restaurants and because all the menus were making me drool, I decided to focus this year’s picks on items that were truly bizarre. It’s that time of the year again! Chicago Restaurant Week is almost here, and it’s time to make your reservations for the best food Chicago has to offer.
