320 South Canal’s BMO Tower unveils restaurant | Eater Chicago

"A full-service, 120-seat Italian restaurant opening as part of Canal Street Market, it aims for familiar food at an "awesome" price point so people can come multiple times a week without feeling guilty, according to director of operations Laine Peterson. Dinner is full service with fresh pasta and items that don't chase a single regional identity: highlights include a cacio e pepe using mafaldine and confit tomatoes and a calamarata with grilled shrimp. Chef Forster Sorensen (working with chef de cuisine Ross Sundberg) is drawing on techniques learned at spots like Public Quality Meats to make house sausage and charcuterie—breakfast will feature fresh turkey sausages paired with Zachary Dawson's English muffins—and breakfast pastries from Dawson (including a Saigon cinnamon roll and a lemon sugar cookie using citric acid) figure prominently. Lunchtime will offer made-to-order items and quick options like Neapolitan pizza and pre-made salads; a pepperoni pizza will use sopressata as a topping while julienned pepperoni is cooked into the tomato sauce to boost flavor. The team emphasizes extra morning prep so quality isn't sacrificed for speed." - Ashok Selvam
