CHICAGO
The Second City may be its nickname but the food in the capital of Illinois is nothing short of first class. There’s a great array of bistros and brasseries perfect for the Business savvy individual, or alternatively some great fine dining restaurants with fabulous views and cuisine for a personal endeavor. Many top restaurants feature panoramic, skyline vistas as standard, making them the perfect place to enjoy the local cuisine and absorb the dynamic cityscape. There’s a mix of styles on offer to suit every palette with Modern European and American taking the fore alongside a few choice pan-Asian establishments. Yet for all it’s appeal it’s the locals that are enjoying the success rather than the nation’s big chains. There’s no Duccasse, Jean-Georges or even Wolfgang puck dominating the scene here. The precedent is instead on independent venues that concentrate on cuisine rather than expansion. Big names like Charlie Trotters and L’Everest maintain their high standards by staying focused on the task in hand…they aren’t worry about expanding to other cities but rather by maintaining their high standards ensure that inhabitants of other cities come to them!
