10 places everyone’s talking about—and dining at—in February. In order of heat:
BAR TOMA So many treasures populate the menu at this new spot that you might overlook the best hot chocolate in Chicago. 110 E. Pearson St.; 312-266-3110 Read our review »
SLURPING TURTLE There’s not a bad seat in this ultrasleek noodle house—if you can score one, that is. 116 W. Hubbard St.; 312-464-0466
VERA The holy trinity at this Spanish charmer: ham, cheese, and sherry. Now that’s theology we can get behind. 1023 W. Lake St.; 312-243-9770 Check out photos of Vera's garlic prawns, roasted beets, and other goodies on our photo blog, What Penny Eats »
BUTCHER & THE BURGER This place is so DIY, we expected to be handed meat grinders. 1021 W. Armitage Ave.; 773-697-3735
PUMP ROOM As grand and storied as the 18th-century one in Bath, England? We thinketh yes. Public Chicago, 1301 N. State Pkwy.; 312-601-2970 Read our review »
BLT AMERICAN BRASSERIE Just like Laurent Tourondel promised, a something-for-everyone menu. Guess that’s why everyone is here. 500 W. Superior St.; 312-948-8744
GOOSEFOOT If you’re going to open this far from the action with a $90 prix fixe menu and a goofy name, it helps to be as talented as Chris Nugent. And BYO. 2656 W. Lawrence Ave.; 773-942-7547
SEVEN OCEAN Asian fusion in a minimalist Oak Park space? Or prequel to a Clooney Vegas heist movie? 122 N. Marion St., Oak Park; 708-524-7979
YUSHO Calling Martha Stewart: Does the skewer go on the left or right side of the plate? 2853 N. Kedzie Ave.; 773-904-8558
ROKA AKOR It’s supposed to feel very Zen. Maybe “Zen” doesn’t mean what we think it means. 456 N. Clark St.; 312-477-7652 Read our review »
