Read an article in United's June 2007 Hemispheres magazine which talked about some "gourmet" burgers at:

Viand
155 E Ontario St
Chicago
www.viandchicago.com

Chef Steve Chiappetti who's family owns Chicago based Chiappetti Lamb & Veal makes his burgers from dry-aged sirloin and beef tenderloin tips.

Some of the burgers he has served:

fondue burger - dipped in Gruyere cheese before being set atop a brioche bun

Cubano burger - chimichurri laced burger with fried onions and black bean puree

Greek burger - topped with eggplant spread, cucumber, feta cheese

Viand also serves a smokey chicken burger and a vegetarian chickpea burger with tzatziki like sauce.

There are 20 microbrews from around the Great Lakes region served to choose from to go with the burgers.

Open for lunch @ 11:30am, hmmmmm maybe an upcoming spot for a Do ???
