New on the scene
The buzz on new and upcoming Chicago restaurant openings Tavern at the Park
Looks like the Park Grill is getting some competition
for Millennium Park visitors. While the vibe of this 300-seat
space strives
for upscale casual, executive chef John Hogan's classical
French training means this isn't going to be average bar
food. The menu will include Tavern Teasers, four Slider-sized
sandwiches with options like filet mignon with a blue cheese
crust ($13), crab cakes ($12) and sirloin ($8). Entrees
also offer comfort food with flair: double-cut pork chop with
a cherry-cola barbecue sauce ($19), for example. We can't
wait to try the fried banana split ($7) for dessert. The
two-story glass facade promises impressive views of Millennium
Park.
