Feb. 1, 2011 - PRLog -- 5 Chicago Restaurants Satiate Valentine’s Day Cravings

 

A gander around Chicago restaurants, known for reliable victuals and cozy confines—and it’s quite evident that many eateries have not finalized the Valentine’s Day menu. With February 14th falling on a Monday, some Chicago restaurants are going the extra mile to satiate famished lovers; while, others seem to be gearing up for Chicago Restaurant Week 2011  (February 18 - 27th). Nevertheless, five Chicago restaurants, spanning different neighborhoods, cuisines and ambiances. serve up incredible Valentine’s Day fuel.

 

Asian
Perchance, the original plan was to getaway to somewhere like the Fiji Islands. In which case, Ariel's 4-course Asian menu at Aja will compensate. An $80 prix fixe menu begins with foie gras. Requiring a decision between rack of lamb and butter poached lobster; this Valentine’s Day dinner even covers the flowers (actually a rose) as well as a champagne toast. Aja | 660 N. State Street | Chicago, IL 60611  |  312.202.6050

 

 

Italian
Symphony enthusiasts need not have a harried evening from the CSO to a mediocre Italian restaurant dinner. Pelago serves a doppio outing that involves a five or six course meal ($58 and up), and a cellist and violinist repertoire to boot (on the 13th and 14th). (The Gold Coast Italian restaurant is located just one block west of Michigan Avenue). Pelago | 201 East Delaware Place | Chicago, IL 60611 | 312.280.0700

 

 

Contemporary American
No-frill partners appreciate the simplicity of good quality food—devoid of the Valentine’s Day commercialized hullabaloo. That’s why--Acre Restaurants, naked tables, a chilled vibe and plenty of palate pleasing options for herbivores and carnivores, hits the spot. The Edgewater dining establishment plates up an uncomplicated, delectably memorable meal. (Oysters are the only special offering of the occasion). Acre Restaurant 5308 N. Clark Street Chicago IL 60540 |773.334.7600

 

Mexican
For those, who prefer to ooh and ah in unison-then  Los Moles  in Roscoe Village will do. Highlighting moles so reminiscent of Oaxaca that even Mr. Bayless would drool, this Valentine’s Day prix fixe dinner is only $40 per person. (Does not include wine pairings) Los Moles | 3140 N. Lincoln Ave | Chicago, IL 60657

 

 

French
Reservations are bound to evaporate at Bon Soiree, where organic epicureans savor the influences of vast cultures. Although the Chicago restaurant nestled between Bucktown and West Town draws from Japanese traditions and presentations with classical French techniques, for Valentine’s Day weekend, lovers explore an “Aphrodisiac menu.” It consists of eight courses, encompassing everything from lobster, Wagyu beef, duck confit, snow cherries to a culmination of chocolate. ($135 per person) Bon Soiree  | 2728 W. Armitage Avenue  | Chicago, IL 60647   | 773-486-7511
