The Food

Appetizers:

Try the skillet roasted Mussels in Chowder Broth, it will set the tone for the well prepared dishes to come. $8.00

The Butternut Squash Soup @ $6.00 is well worth the trip to Chicago.

The Baked Old Bay Seafood Scampi in garlic butter is so good that you will want to order another for the main course @ $10.00 the plate.

Main Course:

Chef Ricky's TV DINNER PLATE, horseradish ketchup, glazed Meat Loaf, mashed potatoes, long cooked beans, and a seasonal fruit crisp @ $16.00 the plate.

The Crock-simmered Pot Roast with root cellar veges, and a smoked pepper gravy will have you planning your next visit @ 18.00 the plate.

Sautéed Tilapia with mashed potatoes, spinach and caper butter sauce @ $17.00 the plate.

Your 'Love Chef's' favorite:
Grilled Pork Porter House, with sage, corn bread dressing, pot greens, fried apples in onion sauce @ $19.00 the plate.

I have to have the Pan Roasted Salmon with white beans, ham hock, cabbage ragout and mustard sauce. Wow, you'll be impressed. $18.00 the plate.

Now, this is a menu that you will have trouble with when deciding on your selection, because all of the dishes are the ones you want; so come back, stay in Chicago and eat all your meals here. Whatever. You can't make a mistake.

Desserts:

Be prepared for some great memories and, yes, it's worth the CARBS!

Beverages:

A great wine selection. Daily cocktail specials. Friendly bar menu.

This is a must on your 'to enjoy list'.
