" In the world of Chicago tasting menus, Wherewithall in Avondale is downright affordable, clocking in at $85 for four courses. But you know what’s even more affordable? Their bar menu. That’s where you can order dishes like steak frites, prawns, and various other snacks ranging in price from $5-$25. And just like the restaurant, the casual front bar area feels like you’re hanging out at a dinner party, but with no appetizers from Trader Joe’s. Plus, there’s a lovely secluded courtyard for when it’s nice enough to hang outside. " - adrian kane
