"Floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Chicago River make Travelle at The Langham a relaxing spot for a leisurely breakfast or lunch featuring milk bread french toast with honeyed ricotta, a lobster benedict with truffle hollandaise or a smash burger. In the evening, the action shifts to the lounge for roasted branzino with Parisienne gnocchi and a cocktail menu utilizing unusual ingredients such as banana peppers and beet-infused mezcal. Make a reservation through Tock." - Samantha Nelson
"The floor-to-ceiling windows at Travelle offer dramatic views for diners enjoying a luxurious brunch with a lobster benedict with truffle hollandaise or a wagyu burger topped with white cheddar and garlic aioli. In the evenings, grab a seat on one of the couches in the lounge to sip a showy cocktail and snack on cheese & charcuterie or oysters. Book a table through Tock." - aimee.levitt, Eater Staff, Samantha Nelson
"Situated on the second floor of the Langham Hotel, this restaurant is open around the clock—and after tasting the team’s handiwork, we’re all the more thankful. Seasonal American cuisine is the specialty here, a focus that chef Ricardo Jarquin honors in plates like the Charred-Tar (a steak tartare twist with tenderloin, A1-sauce aioli, fried quail eggs, and truffle oil), watermelon salad (a summer favorite that includes shrimp, jicama, and cucumbers), and grilled Nigerian prawns (with lemon butter and herbs). Whatever you do, save room for dessert; pastry chef Scott Green has a knack for sweets that look as good as they taste. Case in point: the lemon pavlova, with lemon cream, coconut dacquoise, and lemon croutons."
"Spring is in the air so Travelle at the Langham is creating an Easter to-go menu that showcases seasonal flavors. The meal begins with roasted strawberries and asparagus with chickpea panisse, Humboldt Fog goat cheese, and rosemary honey, followed by a rack of lamb served with smoked aubergine, sunchoke, pomegranate, pearl onion, and mint. For dessert, dig into carrot cake made with cream cheese, pineapple, and walnut praline. The cost is $75 per person and orders can be placed on Tock." - Jeffy Mai
"The Langham hotel’s contemporary American restaurant Travelle will host a Champagne dinner this month featuring five kinds of bubbly from French Champagne house Billecart-Salmon." - Naomi Waxman
