Traveling to Chicago guarantees you're going to find some outstanding food, this past weekend didn't disappoint.
We started off our weekend of food with dinner at The Grocery Bistro on Washington just west of Halsted. This bistro that sports communal tables and a casual atmosphere makes some truly great food at very reasonable prices. It is however bring your own bottle, so if you want wine with dinner you'll need to bring it along conveniently there is a nice wine shop right next door that is accustomed to diners arriving just before their reservation searching for the perfect bottle of wine. We managed to sample a wide selection from the menu.
Each appetizer was not only beautiful to look at but flavorful, I had the homemade duck sausage with oven roasted parsnips and apples and it was delicious. We were not disappointed as our entrees arrived the Pork Cheeks were out of this world, perfectly seasoned and cooked. The Rabbit and Hanger Steak both were both equally tasty as well.
Dessert was fun from the spiced donuts to the
huckleberry apple crisp. My only complaint was that the music was too loud and really didn't seem to fit the environment, I asked several times if they could turn it down so we could
converse over our meal, each time they said they would but never did.
