Tasting menus showcasing modern French cuisine with wine flights
























"I note that veteran chef Michael Lachowicz permanently closed suburban fine-dining icon George Trois in late February after nine years at 64 Green Bay Road in Winnetka in order to expand his French brasserie Aboyer into the space, while preserving George Trois’ spirit through monthly pop-up dinners, wine events, and cooking classes." - Ashok Selvam

"Chef Michael Lachowicz and his team at George Trois in suburban Winnetka will host an opulent Christmas Eve menu ($189 per person) featuring fancy fare like foie gras eclair over crispy fried leeks, paupiettes of Dover sole with lobster mousse, and filet of beef tenderloin with truffle mousse en croute. Reservations are available via Tock. Interested parties would be wise to move quickly, as the intimate restaurant only seats 12." - Naomi Waxman, Ashok Selvam

"George Trois and Aboyer, a pair of award-winning French restaurants from chef Michael Lachowicz, have reopened in the same building in Winnetka after extensive renovations, according to a rep. George Trois features a seasonal nine-course tasting menu, while Aboyer is a more casual bistro. George Trois and Aboyer, 64 Green Bay Road, Winnetka, George Trois open 6 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. Friday through Sunday; Aboyer open 5:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m. Sunday, Wednesday, and Thursday and 5:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, reservations available via Tock." - Naomi Waxman

"Reimagined as a haute-cuisine sanctuary, Georges Trois won the Jean Banchet 2019 Restaurant of the Year award, was temporarily closed when the pandemic struck, and later reopened without major changes; it continues to offer a seasonal eight-course tasting menu and operates from the same Winnetka location as Aboyer." - Aimee Levitt

"A celebrated suburban French destination operating on a limited schedule with a strictly seated, eight-course tasting menu that showcases refined dishes such as lobster, Japanese black cod, brandade beignets, and an elaborate Veal Oscar." - Naomi Waxman
