"The weather outside may be frightful but that doesn’t mean Chicagoans shouldn't hang out by the lake. Former Fountainhead chef Cleetus Friedman is leading the kitchen at this tavern housed inside the historic Theater on the Lake building. He’s putting whimsical touches on Midwestern comfort and making beer-braised brisket hash, cereal milk French toast, and chicken fried chicken. When summer finally arrives, the skyline patio will offer al fresco dining and picturesque views." - Jeffy Mai
