Do These: Lamb Dinners at Taxim and RIA
It's the time of year when lamb fills the tables, and two Chicago restaurants are hosting lamb feasts worth noting. RIA is hosting a lamb pop-up dinner in their private dining space on April 21st, and Taxim is converting the entire menu to lamb on April 24th. Menus for both dinners are below - and you won't be disappointed.
Taxim, Greek Winery Team Up For Dinner
Taxim, the Wicker Park restaurant that has received overwhelmingly positive reviews (in our opinion it's probably the best new restaurant to open this year) for its innovative take on Greek cuisine, is teaming up with one of Greece's best wineries to put together a dinner that, on paper, is going to blow diners away.
Taxim Redefines Greek Cuisine
Taxim, the new Greek restaurant from rookie restaurateur David Schneider, takes the concept of Greek cuisine as Chicagoans know it and turns it on its head. Gone are yard stick-sized kabobs, syrupy souvlaki and middle-aged waitresses with penciled eyebrows and hoarse throats from shouting "Opa!" while setting fire to some saganaki amidst stock posters of Greek landscapes. Instead, Schneider embraces the melting pot of other Mediterranean influences, particularly Turkish, that informed pre-20th Century Greek cuisine, and does it with the deft hand of a seasoned restaurant owner.
