Rustik
Chicago Bites #123

There's no better comfort food on a cold day than tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich.

The weather outside was frightful, so we ducked into Rustik to enjoy the cozy atmosphere and inspired comfort food. We were split about whether the food was good enough for the price point, but we both agreed on the homey, but antler-ridden atmosphere and service. Tune in to hear the details.

The vanilla ice cream was a perfect companion to the butter cake.
