5 Chicago Restaurant Openings You Might Have Missed
"A fire in August 2016 closed this then Bib Gourmand-designated restaurant. Its owners, David Morton and Michael Kornick of DMK Restaurants, hoped to have it back up and running after weeks, but instead that turned into years when it finally reopened at the tail end of 2018. Along with Morton and Kornick, chef Erick Williams (mentioned above) also was involved with the menu, which showcases "a fine selection of regional techniques—from Texas and the Carolinas to sweet home Chicago," per the restaurant's website. This means the menu includes Texas brisket, Chicago rib tips, St. Louis-style spare ribs, pulled pork and more. There's also catering and delivery available." - Aaron Hutcherson
