Thanks for the link! What a great site! Like you I am in Chicago and the
Tribune Food section is pretty bad. I assume the Sun Times is even worse
but I almost never look at the Sun Times anymore! Since Grant Achatz is
leaving Trio soon I am going to eat there next week. I am pretty excited
even if it *does* mean a drive to Evanston. I was motivated to make the
drive based on several reviews including some remarkably comprehensive ones
on Chowhound.

Again, thanks for the link!
