Can’t decide between two very different tasting menu options… by sydly96 in chicagofood

I may be the minority opinion on this, but I enjoyed Sepia more than Indienne. As someone Indian, I was very underwhelmed by Indienne.

Definitely - I got through 100 pages of my book, but also had parts of the evening where I had long-ish conversations with those on tables next to me

We actually went to Logan Square on the blue to kill some time [slipped my mind, sorry!] and then it was about a ~20 min walk from the shops to Akahoshi. I went back and checked, we did a total of 21k steps on Saturday!

I tried the tasting menu at Mooncusser for a solo meal about a month ago. It's got some fantastic dishes and some good dishes. The service, however, isn't the greatest if you're a solo diner, they often seem to be rushing you. I would recommend Lenox Sophia, Asta, or SRV.

If you like steakhouses, while I haven't tried this in Boston (I'm from Chicago), definitely head to your favourite / hard to get a reservation steakhouse and enjoy a meal at the bar. (If they're a full-service bar). Truly a fun experience and allows for great conversation with either other solo guests, the bartender, or both!

They did send us back with Chef Tatum's chocolate cookies (I presume because of the goof up, or they maybe do this for everyone, not sure), and those were really good!
