    Time Out Chicago Dining and Libation Society hits us in the gut: Gallery

    Posted in Dining & Libation Society, Restaurants and bars by Jason Heidemann on October 29th, 2009 at 11:47 pm

    By all accounts, the TOC launch of its Dining & Libation Society earlier this evening was a smashing success. I know what you’re thinking, I’m just saying that because I work at Time Out. It’s true, I bargained my way into foodie bliss by agreeing to host the video segment of the evening (stay tuned, we’re currently editing the footage together), but I swear it was a near perfect evening without my bias, and the footage proves it!

    Restaurant L2O, located inside Lincoln Park’s Belden-Stratford hotel, was the setting for our four-course $68 tasting menu (including tax, tip and wine pairing with each course), and chef Laurent Gras graciously prepared a head-to-tail tasting experience of the Hiramasa fish we won’t soon forget (and gave a thoughtful Q&A with us eager foodie folk afterward). Still don’t believe me? Take a look at the photos above for a guided tour of the restaurant and dazzling pictures from behind-the-scenes at L2O and from our private D&LS event. Reflections from the attendees, videos and much more are on their way.
