  1. Andrew Brochu leaving The Monarch to head up The Aviary kitchen

    Tribune critic
    Those of you who had "before June" in the when-will-Andrew-Brochu-leave-The-Monarch pool, collect your winnings. The highly regarded chef, whose resume includes three years with Grant Achatz at Alinea and who earned two Michelin stars for his work at...

  2. Significant sequels

    In the last six months, three highly regarded restaurant chef/operators — Stephanie Izard of Girl & the Goat, Graham Elliot of his eponymous restaurant, and David Flom and Matt Moore of Chicago Cut Steakhouse — have opened sequel restaurants, each a more casual, more affordable version of their high-end originals.

  4. The Monarch

    <strong>The Monarch</strong>.<strong> </strong>Opened in January, The Monarch is a single, narrow room whose front half is given over to bar space and whose back half contains a handful of tall tables. (An undeveloped backyard holds the promise of outdoor dining someday.) The cool thing is that Andrew Brochu, a highly talented chef whose cooking landed him a job at Alinea and secured two Michelin stars at Graham Elliot restaurant, is running the kitchen here. The vibe here is very laid back and mellow, but the high quality of the kitchen output is undeniable. Silky smooth foie gras mousse ($13), served with strawberry jam and toasted brioche, was so good we begged for extra bread (we were in No Foie Left Behind mode). Duck confit chilaquiles ($14) are surprisingly prim, stacked neatly (at least on arrival) with crisp tortilla layers under a sunny-side-up roof. Blackening spices kick the shrimp and grits with cheddar cheese ($13) into high gear, and brioche French toast slices are topped with precisely diced roasted apples and a surfeit of Chantilly cream ($9). The "box of cereal and milk" is a cute $2.50 touch (it's an actual box of cereal from a variety pack), as is the sweet-spicy supersoft pretzel, served with raisin cream cheese ($7).

  5. Bring on brunch

    Though Sunday brunch is a year-round option, warm and sunny weather is what brings out the crowds. I can attest to that, having spent most of the last 10 fairly miserable (weatherwise) weekends hitting one brunch after another; I don't think I found a single crowded dining room during all of February and March (Easter excepted), and reservations certainly were no problem. Brunch-friendly temperatures will be with us soon enough, and when they arrive, here are a few brunch spots, old and new, that will be worth checking out. Better still, visit them now, when tables are still easy to secure (Mother's Day excepted).

  6. New weekend brunch options

    When it's this frigid outside, the idea of attempting a weekend brunch that goes beyond toaster waffles eaten while huddled under a blanket seems downright unreasonable. If there's anything that stands the chance to ply you from the cozy comforts of your couch, it's the toasty offerings at these freshly debuted weekend brunches.

  7. Rare treats

    Rodrick Markus reached for the top shelf of a metal cabinet at the back of his office. "I know, I know, I know," he said to himself. His fingers worked across a row of jars and stopped at a tall glass cylinder. I had asked him about rare ingredients. Rare ingredients is about 40 percent of what he does. He locates tough-to-acquire things for chefs who, being chefs, want something especially bad when they are told it will be impossible to get. Rare vegetables, salts, oils, spices, nuts, fish eggs &mdash; he finds the guy who locates the guy who heard of the guy who knows the guy who knows about, say, a place in the Pacific Northwest where, with the right permit at the right time, you can forage for a rare pine bark that grows 25 feet in the air.

  9. A potluck kind of year

    If only it were so easy to pithily proclaim 2012 as the Year of the (fill-in-the-blank). But there's really no one thread that neatly ties together the Chicago restaurant scene these last 12 months. A restaurant that put Chicago on the culinary map 25 years ago closed its doors. Doughnuts became "a thing." Digging up mushrooms from the forest preserve took on high status.

Here's a look back at 2012 and all the trends, talkers, highs and lows that came with it. Hope you're hungry!

  12. Charlie Trotter's pressure cooker

    Everyone knows Charlie Trotter as the chef of Charlie Trotter's. It's his name, his restaurant, and he's the boss. But that title &ldquo;chef&rdquo; has many meanings, and Trotter has embodied just about all of them during his 25 years at Charlie Trotter's.
