#indian food

An old friend came to town, and they wanted to check out Indienne. I'd been in May for the vegetarian menu, so this time, I had their non-veg option.

Atelier suffered some damage in one of the big storms last month, so they had to close for a few weeks to make repairs. They brought back their quarantine-era weekend takeout, which we signed up for straight away.

And, yesterday was our monthly Thattu supper club delivery, so this post is a double-feature.

Thattu, an Indian comfort food restaurant that opened about a year ago, announced a supper club earlier this month: they'll deliver a prix fixe menu to your door on the last Tuesdays.

Last year, Indienne became Chicago's first michelin-starred Indian resturant. They've been on my radar, and I've finally had an opportunity to drop in -- and let me start the post off by saying it was a fantastic experience. Indianne has made fancy-tasting-menu versions of dishes that are completely different from the original thing, but still capture all the flavours perfectly. And it's not always in a way you'd expect!
