"James Beard Award-winning chef Gavin Kaysen’s urban-chic dining room at Spoon and Stable has a glass-encased, floor-to-ceiling wine “closet” and an open, bustling kitchen. The menu changes often, keeping pace with Midwest seasonality, but expect dishes in the vein of cucumber gazpacho with prawns; bison tartare; and dry-aged duck breast over black rice. From the dessert menu, try the honey and cream cake, served with beeswax ice cream." - Justine Jones, Alex Lodner
