点评:Is it my imagination or are there more restaurants with a southern accent finding their way to Chicago? Like barbecue restaurants. And Asian restaurants. While visiting the Hyde Park community, I sampled the Louisiana-like cuisine at Virtue Restaurant & Bar and was very impressed. Located at 1462 East 53rd Street, near the University of Chicago campus, Virtue offers all the trappings of a fine restaurant in St. Francisville, Louisiana, or along the Great River Road from Baton Rouge to New Orleans. Open from 4 to 9 on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday and 4 to 10 on Friday and Saturday, it offers such Cajun delicacies as gumbo, banana pudding, biscuits with pimento cheese and honey, Andouille sausage, cornbread with honey butter, black-eyed peas and Carolina Gold rice. It tastes as good as it sounds. I ordered the biscuits and gumbo and Gem lettuce with radish, egg, tomato, ranch dressing and crispy black-eyed peas. For an entree, I chose salmon with sea island red peas, turnip chow chow, crushed potatoes and cornbread. For dessert, banana pudding with vanilla wafers and cool whip can't be beat. Welcome to Chicago's south side.
翻译:是我的想象,还是有更多带有南方风味的餐馆在芝加哥出现?比如烧烤餐厅。还有亚洲餐馆。在参观海德公园社区时,我在 Virtue Restaurant & Bar 品尝了路易斯安那式美食,印象非常深刻。Virtue 位于东 53 街 1462 号,靠近芝加哥大学校园,提供路易斯安那州圣弗朗西斯维尔或巴吞鲁日到新奥尔良大河路沿线高级餐厅的所有设施。餐厅于周二、周三、周四和周日下午 4 点至晚上 9 点营业,周五和周六下午 4 点至晚上 10 点营业,提供各种卡津美食,如秋葵浓汤、香蕉布丁、加甜椒奶酪和蜂蜜的饼干、安杜伊香肠、加蜂蜜黄油的玉米面包、豇豆和卡罗来纳黄金大米。味道和名字一样好。我点了饼干、秋葵汤和宝石生菜、萝卜、鸡蛋、西红柿、牧场沙拉酱和脆黑眼豆。作为主菜,我选择了三文鱼配海岛红豆、萝卜炒饭、碎土豆和玉米面包。作为甜点,香蕉布丁配香草威化饼和酷鞭,无与伦比。欢迎来到芝加哥南部。
