"Hug Esan in Elmhurst has a so much good food that you'll want to come back with a group, but the restaurant is pretty tiny—so it's easier to walk in with just one other person. Share a whole tilapia, grilled or fried, and round out your spicy Thai Esan meal with a salad and small bites, like grilled chicken livers or crispy frog legs." - bryan kim, will hartman, willa moore, sonal shah, molly fitzpatrick
