We've lived in Chicago (suburbs) all our lives, total foodies, but generally go to either ethnic restaurants or those where we can eat for less than $100 per person. Our daughter is coming to town for Xmas week and requested as a splurge that we take her to Alinea for dinner. I've been, didn't love it, but was willing to give it another chance, but unfortunately for her, it's closed the entire time she'll be in. So, we need another option. Any opinions on Trotters vs. L2O, vs. Everest, Les Nomades, Tru, etc. Price obviously not an object this time, which is the best?
