A GROWING MEXICAN FOOD SCENE
A trip to Chicago ’ s tourist-friendly Pilsen neighborhood is worth visiting as much for the artwork as for the incredible Latin food . Dine on mouthwatering Mexican favorites after a visit to the National Museum of Mexican Art . Order spicy torta ahogada ( Mexican sandwiches with salsa ) or from the impressive vegetarian menu at the down-to-earth restaurant 5 Rabinitos . Try perfectly seasoned carne asada with a side of housemade flour tortillas at Canton Regio . Enjoy carnitas , the slow-cooked pork dish , from Carnitas Uruapan , which has been serving them up to rave reviews since 1975 .
The booming Mexican population in Chicago is contributing to the city ’ s standout food scene . Award-winning chef Diana Dávila brings her innovative dishes to Logan Square ’ s Mi Tocaya Antojería — small and large plates reflect her spin on Mexican favorites as well as new creations inspired by her Mexican heritage . Guisado de Nopalitos , a stew with cactus , zucchini and charred chilies , is just one example . Chef Rick Bayless ’ Frontera Grill , perhaps the best-known Mexican restaurant in the city , is known for its tortilla soup and funky decor . For those who crave margaritas , Lakeview ’ s Tuco and Blondie offers up a refreshing one that ’ s boosted by the inclusion of avocado .
