Just back home to the UK after a week in Chicago and it was outstanding from start to finish! We exclusively went to places recommended on this sub and were never disappointed. We didn’t have a single bad meal the whole time and everyone was so kind and welcoming. Chicago seems very popular among domestic tourists but every time I’ve mentioned it to my English friends, it hasn’t been on their radar. I will do my part to end this and ensure you get the swathe of visitors you deserve! Thank you!

Specific Request

Low key restaurant in oak park for a family birthday?

Hi, we're planning a birthday party in Oak Park for a kid, but the group will mostly be adults. The party has to take place in Oak Park for various logistical reasons but I'm not too familiar with the restaurants in the area. So looking for a restaurant in the area with a casual vibe and a private space where we can do food and drinks and we don't want the food to suck. Open to different types of cuisines but not looking for white tablecloth fancy.

Looking at One Lake Brewing but want to explore other options too.

Question

Where can I find thai chilies & kaffir lime leaves in city?

I went to Talard Thai Market a few months ago and was surprised to not find an extensive selection of chilies or even kaffir lime leaves. Maybe it was an off day for deliveries? Sometimes Fresh Marketplace has green thai chilies.

Any grocery/local supplier recommendations much appreciated, thanks!
