The Most Anticipated Restaurant Openings in Chicago, Spring 2021 - Eater Chicago

"It’s been quite a journey for Zubair Mohajir, the chef behind Wazwan Supper Club, an Indian fine dining pop-up that evolved to a food stall inside Politan Row food hall in West Loop. Mohajir, who in 2018 spent four months working in Bangkok at Gaggan — one of the world’s best Indian restaurants — turned to casual food like halal fried chicken sandwiches and burgers. He built up quite a following, but he never lost focus on his love of fine dining. So in late April or early May, he’s planning to open Aman — an ode to his grandmother and their family home in Chennai in eastern India. It’s an all-day restaurant with a heavy dose of South Indian flavors without being traditional. Aman will feature a tasting menu at night, but a casual vibe by day: “I want this to be one of the best restaurants in Chicago, and it just happens to be halal,” Mohajir says." - Ashok Selvam
