Gazpacho @ Eggy's
A bowl of thick, zesty, refreshing gazpacho @Eggyschi actually makes the heat wave bearable. EGGY'S: 333 E BENTON; 773-234-3449
Turkey Club @ Eggy's
I’ve had better fries than the oddly coated-tasting ones @Eggyschi, but never a better turkey club. EGGY'S: 333 E BENTON; 773-234-3449
Hot Fudge Sundae @ Eggy's
@pennypollack: It’s a miracle: The hot fudge on my hot fudge sundae @Eggyschi was hot and fudgy! EGGY'S: 333 E BENTON; 773-234-3449
Salmon @ G.E.B.
Since G.E.B.’s menu @grahamelliot promises 3 ingreds per dish, & the salmon has 4, I say: Lose the lardo. G.E.B.: 841 W RANDOLPH; 312-888-2258
Beets, Burrata, & Arugula @ G.E.B.
G.E.B.’s beets, Burrata & arugula @grahamelliot is a perfectly lovely beet-lovers’ salad, nicely jazzed by olive oil crackers. G.E.B.: 841 W RANDOLPH; 312-888-2258
Risotto @ G.E.B.
Risotto is the one dish that would bring me back to G.E.B.’s @grahamelliot, especially when laced w/crispy artichokes. G.E.B.: 841 W RANDOLPH; 312-888-2258
Veggies @ Erwin
I am a sucker for great grilled tubers veggies, like these asparagus, purple potatoes, & onions @ErwinCafe. Gone forever July 2. ERWIN: 2925 N HALSTED; 773-528-7200
Whitefish @ Erwin
If @ErwinCafe has its whitefish special this week—Erwin closes July 2—order it. ERWIN: 2925 N HALSTED; 773-528-7200
Hamburger @ Erwin
@pennypollack: Lake View’s 18-yr-old treasure, @ErwinCafe, closes July 2, so this week is your last chance for an Erwin burger with skin-on fries. ERWIN: 2925 N HALSTED; 773-528-7200
