  1. Ex-Chicagoan conquers Mexican food

    NEW YORK — Rarely smiling or saying more than was necessary as he created a twisting column of chocolate ganache or turned peanut butter into powder, Alex Stupak was an intense figure in Grant Achatz's intense kitchen as Alinea's opening pastry chef.

  3. Memoir blends food and comics

    The hardest thing to accept about Lucy Knisley's "Relish: My Life in the Kitchen," the lovely new graphic food memoir from the former Chicago cartoonist, is that Knisley grew up to be a cartoonist at all.

  5. Four stars for Next's Vegan menu

    Chicago has seen vegetarian restaurants before, and vegetable menus before, but nothing, not even the vegetable tasting menus that Charlie Trotter offered during his long career, compares to the Vegan menu currently featured at Next. In more than 20 courses across four hours, Next dazzles diners with one inventive vegan creation after another.

  9. Bring on brunch

    Though Sunday brunch is a year-round option, warm and sunny weather is what brings out the crowds. I can attest to that, having spent most of the last 10 fairly miserable (weatherwise) weekends hitting one brunch after another; I don't think I found a single crowded dining room during all of February and March (Easter excepted), and reservations certainly were no problem. Brunch-friendly temperatures will be with us soon enough, and when they arrive, here are a few brunch spots, old and new, that will be worth checking out. Better still, visit them now, when tables are still easy to secure (Mother's Day excepted).

  13. 50 Best Restaurants: The U.S. did better than you think, and where Thomas Keller ate after

    An American restaurant may not have walked off with the top spot on this year's World's 50 Best Restaurants list awards, which was sponsored by San Pellegrino and held in London on Sunday night, but the United States tied with France for most restaurants on the list, with six.

  19. Phil Vettel: Four stars for Grace

    Given chef Curtis Duffy's curriculum vitae &mdash; his work at Alinea, the two Michelin stars awarded to Avenues restaurant on Duffy's watch &mdash; there really wasn't any question whether Grace, Duffy's first solo effort, would be good. Just how good.

  23. U. of C. freshman treats fellow students to gourmet dining

    University of Chicago freshman and &quot;tentative" economics major Robert Lipman has the same time and financial constraints as any other college student attending a demanding university, but he still finds time to cook gourmet-style meals for his fellow students at an underground restaurant he started in the fall.
