Overview:

Full review and RMP resto recap coming soon!

elevateyourpresence.com/deliciousdirt

For now, I simply have to say I loved every single bite of amazing DeliciousDIRT at RPM. From the lobster caprese to the MEATBALLS (literally salivating thinking about them now.... Mmmmm), every bite had me smiling wanting more... I can not wait eating more of the 30 dishes I was lucky enough to devour during friends and family night (Thx Rich, G and B!).

The environment and atmosphere is one I truly felt at home in and literally loved... relaxing, upscale and contemporary - yet not stuffy whatsoever.

The bar scene is pretty sweet too (both bars).

This resto is a must!! You will LOVE.

Loved: Meatballs, pastas, lobster caprese, caesar salad -get it chopped (loved), gnocchi, linguini w vongole, steak (Mmm), Salmon (well done), aspargus (perfected grilled well done), artichoke, calamari salad, desserts (to die for), tuna sashimi, beet salad.

"Not Tiny on Taste"

  • Food: Contemporary American
  • Decor: Comfy Contemporary, Lounge
  • Service:
  • Cost: $$
  • Wine / Cocktails:

Overview:

Tiny Lounge is absolute perfection! It’s mellow, yet upscale, gorgeous, yet comfortable. Smells from the kitchen – stays open serving premier cuisine until 1am folks- are AMAZE! Tiny is a cult classic, one I hope never gets too too mainstream… yet, I know my hopes are idealistic as Tiny is always packed, always jamming and always top notch.

Tiny’s music, (incredibly important to me) is my idea of perfection – Tribe and Sugar Hill on a Saturday night? Nothing better! Playlists are hand selected by phenomenal friends + owners, Mark and Colleen. Who knows, you might just get lucky mentioning you saw this review when you're there next time...

Tiny has been an MBK Delicious DIRT go-to since it opened years and years ago under the Addison stop. There were weeks I spent about four nights a week at Tiny… Since they reopened almost two years ago (Leavitt and Montrose in Lincoln Square), Tiny has blown up even more. Old dwellers could not have been more thrilled... even created Facebook fan pages to unite in their happiness when it reopened! Newbies can’t get enough of the food porn, the cocktails, the fabulous spirit of the Tiny!

More on Tiny soon…For now a few FAVES – Ahi tuna tacos: grilled ahi tuna, avocado, zucchini, red pepper & wasabi. Divine.

Grilled chicken empanadas: fresh oregano, cotija cheese, chimichurri sauce at Tiny Lounge… Hot, flavorful, cheesy and NOT OILY. SOOOO DELISH

Delicious pizza margarita super thin crust at the best – TINY LOUNGE. Could have eaten about ten more. LOVE

Special Dishes:

pizza, tuna tacos, chicken empanadas

"Mac on the Mac"

  • Food: American, Comfort, Oysters, Small plates, Many libations,
  • Decor:
  • Service:
  • Cost: $$
  • Wine / Cocktails:

Overview:

Delicious DIRT was among the lucky few to sample oysters galore + mac + cheese (5 cheese) at Frontier Chicago‘s opening night. The boys, our friends, behind Lotties Pub and The Pony really brought it when they opened this newbie!

Frontier is a chill restaurant / sports bar (24 flat screens) with a SWEET menu + extensive drink list. The crowd is usually pretty low key and unpretentious. Atmosphere is casual, wooden, rustic and calming. Don't forget to head upstairs as well...

Frontier is an eatery that will most likely end up in your regular rotation - it's def in mine - kitchen OPEN TIL 1AM FOLKS. On my palate most nights I'm there --> red wine, oysters and 5 cheese Mac & Cheese... all of which SHINE brightly!

Wanna PIG OUT? Get your swine on bc they do whole animal service too.. for the meat LOVER in you... Literally, hottie Chef Brian Jupiter will roast an entire pig, lamb, goat and or wild boar for you and your friends to PIG OUT on. Great idea for a party...

Faves: Frontier’s oyster sampler, 5 cheese Mac & Cheese, DELIGHTFUL.

Info:

Frontier’s 2$ Tuesdays! We love anything for 2$ especially when it comes from greatness. Frontier invites Chicagoans to enjoy their $2 Tuesdays, available every Tuesday from 4:00 PM to 1:30 AM. Tuesday specials will feature items such as select half-pints, oysters, deviled eggs and tacos, all for $2 each.

Mac On The Mac: elevateyourpresence.com/deliciousdirt/2011/06/28/mac-on-the-mac/
