Mexican, and Chicago, cuisine icon Rick Bayless is putting the focus on street food at his new restaurant Xoco (pronounced SHO-ko). The Top Chef Masters winner has put together a sleek menu featuring a variety of tortas, soups, and salads.
Rick won't have to go too far to keep an eye on his new digs. Xoco is located right next to his already well established Frontera Grill in River North.
Something about Rick mixing his culinary experience, great ingredient selection, and Mexican street fare sounds very appealing. It reminds me of gyros with Cristal. Wait. That doesn't sound good at all. Maybe more like apple fritter crepes.
Marcus Leshock, one of my favorite reporters, beat to Xoco, and put together this great preview.
