Squash Soup @ Bice
The squash soup at the new Bice on Delaware seemed a good idea, but it needed more squash and more heat. BICE: Talbott Hotel, 10 E Delaware; 312-951-8900
Halibut @ Bice
@pennypollack: Best thing a/b the new Bice is the outdoor seating along Delaware. 2nd best is hefty halibut w/caper sauce. BICE: Talbott Hotel, 10 E Delaware; 312-951-8900
