16 Restaurants To Make You Fall In Love With Chicago Again - Chicago - The Infatuation
"Getting slightly jostled by a friendly server or a neighboring diner is all part of the experience at Le Bouchon, one of the city’s best French restaurants. This tightly packed bistro feels less like a room full of strangers and more like a big communal dinner, whether you’re crammed into a booth with friends and a juicy canard roti, or having a solo meal at the tiny bar with wine and trout wrapped in delicate puff pastry. And while you’re more likely to overhear loving complaints about Chicago’s professional athletes than whole conversations in French, there’s enough artwork with words like "à toute heure" to convince you that Le Bouchon is the Paris of Bucktown." - john ringor, veda kilaru, nick allen
