"The original Sunda, a pricey Asian fusion spot in River North that’s been around since 2009, feels about as relevant as what you wore to prom: important at the time, but not something you need to revisit. They’ve since opened a location in Fulton Market, reminding us why Chicago became obsessed with fried brussels sprouts tossed in a nuoc cham vinaigrette 15 years ago. This location’s menu is almost identical, meaning you can get the aforementioned sweet-and-savory crispy brussels sprouts salad, as well as over-the-top sushi rolls with foie gras aioli that have zero nuance but are delicious in a right-into-your cerebral-cortex kind of way. The main reason to pay new Sunda a visit is the giant space, high-quality West Loop people-watching, and a booming sound system playing “Now That’s What I Call Music” remixes that also might have been at your prom. If you want to drop $49 on miso cod while listening to “Rhythm Is A Dancer,” come here instead of Nobu." - Adrian Kane
