Where To Eat Indian Food In Chicago - Chicago - The Infatuation
"You'll find this small tasting menu spot hidden in the courtyard behind Lilac Tiger. The Coach House is from the same team, and serves a wonderful $135 seven-course meal with dishes like momos filled with crab kulambu in a spicy black garlic sauce, chewy fara dumplings swimming in clarified beet butter, and chettinad fish topped with eggplant and crispy shallots. Every dish has a story (like that the duck numidian was inspired from a cookbook titled “Recipes From Medieval Islam” the chef read during quarantine), or that the fara is an homage to the chef’s street-food-loving uncle. And while this place is expensive, it still feels relaxed. It’s casual with an optional wine pairing, and has a playlist filled with South Asian pop and hip hop. It’s only open Thursdays through Saturdays (but the schedule changes regularly), so you will need to book in advance." - adrian kane, veda kilaru, john ringor, nick allen
