Just came back from dinner at a local tapas restaurant, Azucar.
(although as always, it wasn't quite a "local" restaurant for us, but rather a 15 minute drive away in Logan Square.)
It just made me realize yet again that the best restaurants aren't necessarily the most expensive, most experimental or the most lauded restaurants. But rather the restaurants that really care about the food and the customers. And the ones that you really feel comfortable in.
We had what is some of the best pork tenderloin that we have had in a while, without breaking the bank. The presentation, preparation, the flavor combination was what I would have expected from an entree that costs $30 in a **** restaurant. But, it cost us only $10 and we didn't need a reservation, nice clothes or a big checkbook.
These places, are in my opinion, the best restaurants (even if some of their other stuff was not quite as stellar as the pork)!
Darn! Wish I had taken some photos!
