Best Midscale Dining
Blackbird
Other nominees: Aigre Doux, Custom House, May Street Market, Naha
The fact that you can come as you are, wearing anything from your finest duds to your most threadbare concert tee, makes this, the paragon of Chicago indie-owned restaurants, a “midscale” dining destination. But any compromises you make with your fashion choices won’t prevent you from sampling the decidedly upscale fare. While he focuses on his other projects, such as Avec and a new gastropub in the Fulton Market district, executive chef Paul Kahan has ceded the day-to-day execution of his food philosophy of pork, pork and more pork to chef de cuisine Mike Sheerin. Sheerin has brought a bit of inventive whimsy to the menu, including pairing smoked grapes with wild venison and hibiscus-flavored jus with pork belly. 619 W Randolph St, 312-715-0708.

Same comment as another article. 20 pages (or more) shows total disrespect for site visitors. I was about to recommend this site to some discussion groups I am on but it is not going to happen now.
What are you folks thinking?

Naha is so expensive! I went there and could not believe how expensive both the food and wine were!
