Morton's of Chicago

Yes, Fritzels and Kungsholm and Sweden House and....

Bozza Nova's excellent these days, and Jake Merlot's and the Garden Cafe at the Art Institute.

What do you know of that's good or great? Especially during the Blues Festival?

Oh yeah! the Sunday Brunch at the Swissotel is very nice.

Morton's is a chain. There are a bunch of Morton's of Chicago (including one here in Philly).  The steaks are great, but start around $25.00 and go up. EVERTHING is a la carte, so expect to pay $5.00 for a huge baked potato, $6.00 for a salad, $6.00 for asparagus, $2.00 for Hollandaise etc.  Wonderful if the company is paying, or to impress someone. The meat is very high quality, and it is my favorite steakhouse, but usually I forgo the sides, and have a porterhouse, and a beer, and worry about the green stuff another time.
