A Furious Case of Ramen!

December 20, 2015 Pooja Naik

I’ve been waiting to do a blog on ramen, which admittedly is one of my favorite things to eat. Rain or shine…I love ramen! Last week, I ate at Furious Spoon, a new Wicker Park restaurant from Chef Shin Thompson that offers Japanese ramen soup furiously fast. The restaurant atmosphere is low key with shared counter seats and a wood lined theme.  Like the décor, the food is simple and the menu is concise.

Much Ado About Whitefish!

December 16, 2015 Pooja Naik

This week, I had a lovely, long overdue visit to Brown Bag Seafood Co. for a tasting. This restaurant’s motto is simple; spend more on quality food and less on the trimmings. This shack style casual seafood eatery with a breezy, Cape Cod type décor also brings a new concept to Chicago, which combines delicious seafood with healthy options. Of course, you have the crispy fish bites or tater tots if you’re in the mood for some indulgence, but they aim to bring you fresh, sustainable seafood.
