Looking forward to a dining blitz to celebrate our wedding anniversary later this month:
We'll start at Next in Chicago for the World's 50 Best menu. I know this thread is split on the quality of Next, but we've been nothing but impressed since Jenner Tomaska took over the executive chef role. Look forward to his take on so many famous chef's dishes.
The next morning we'll try the newish brunch offering at 1-starred Roister, across the street.
That evening we're trying 1-starred Blackbird for the first time, planning to go for the tasting menu.
Then we hop a plane to Lima, Peru where we'll be able to dine at three restaurants on the World's 50 Best list - Maido, Central, and Astrid Y Gaston (the latter will be our Thanksgiving dinner).
Hopeful I'll be better at reporting back than I was on our 7 stars in 7 days in France earlier this year.
