Post #1 - August 2nd, 2005, 9:10 pmI have recently moved to Chicago and interested in learning about some moderately priced restaurants - in particular, Thai and French.
Any suggestions on "not-to-be-missed Chicago restaurants?"
Thanks.Jyoti

Here's a pretty good bistro thread, which will mention a certain restaurant that closes in three days a lot.
As for Thai... you should search and dig on your own. Half this board's about Thai food, start by looking for Spoon, TAC, Thai Aree, Aroy, Thai Avenue, and Thai Grocery....Watch Sky Full of Bacon, the Chicago food HD podcast!

There are two thai restaurants listed, but add Sticky Rice, Thai Avenue, Aroy Thai, Yum Thai, Thai Aree, and Siam's House to that list. You should be able to have great meals at any of them. Check http://www.silapaahaan.com for translated menus for the bulk of them.
For French, I like the sister restaurants Le Bouchon and La Sardine, both in Chicago proper, and Hemmingway's, in Oak Park.
