Where to Eat in Chicago During the James Beard Awards | Eater
"Known for its rotating themed menus, Esmé brings a sense of play to Chicago’s fine-dining scene. One night, you may be enjoying Chef Jenner Tomaska’s refined take on a classic school lunch; and the next, you’re digging into a dish inspired by the local art scene. Have a meal here and you’re getting both dinner and a show: a cultural experience with one-of-a-kind dishes in a setting that changes to reflect the menu of the season. Short on time? Pop into Bar Esmé, an intimate 16-seat spot with a la carte options, like homemade Cheetos, celery root risotto, and a popcorn crème brûlée." - Ariel Kanter
