Japonais Chicago

I’m in Chicago right now for a quick presentation–unfortunately not long enough to check out much more than a few places. I did however get a chance to eat at Japonais, an exceptional Japanese restaurant right on the Chicago River. It has won the hearts of many locals and everyone I spoke with recommended it with high-praise– and they were right. Try the Rainbow Capriccio, the sweet potato roll, and probably almost anything else on the menu and you’ll be quite satisfied. Others in my party had the Kobe Prime Rib with Uni Hollandaise sauce and they all said it was delicious. Don’t fret– you don’t need to plan a trip out to the windy city to get a taste. Japonais has plans of opening in New York on Union Square and in Las Vegas at the Mirage Hotel this summer.
