Where to Eat and Drink in Evanston
"Veteran chef Michael Lachowicz (Aboyer, George Trois) casts a spotlight on the culinary skill and vast knowledge of his business partners — chef Miguel Escobar, sous chef Carlos Cahue, and wine director Sergio Angel — at Fonda Cantina, a bright and casual bar and restaurant. The chefs draw on their grandmothers’ cooking in Huandacareo in Michoacan and Huitzuco in Guerrero to present tender chile relleno (queso Oaxaca, pintos martajados) in a pool of tomato marjoram sauce, pork rendering-laced sope manteca, and a late-night selection of tacos like al pastor, carne asada, and gobernador." - Naomi Waxman, Samantha Nelson
