The 8 Best Bars in Chicago | Bon Appétit

"Created by a husband-and-wife team known for a Michelin-starred tasting menu, this intimate 16-seat cocktail lounge offers floor-to-ceiling park views and pairs a French-style three-course menu with a carefully curated bar program. The wine list emphasizes biodynamic, regenerative, and organic producers, and the cocktail program is presented in an art-inspired booklet drawing on works from the Art Institute. Notable drinks include a plantain-mole–driven Charro—muddled ripe plantain with sesame, pepitas, chiles, and blue agave—and a layered, theatrical cocktail topped with habanero- and green-cardamom–infused egg white and edible rice-paper strips." - ByKristin Braswell
