In Chicago, “a city best known for its steak houses and hot dogs,” the loudest buzz right now is for a restaurant called Green Zebra,” whose menu is four-star, but almost entirely based on vegetables, reports Mark Bittman in The New York Times. The restaurant’s chef, Shawn McClain, earlier made a name for himself at an “upscale, ultracrative and well-publicized” Evanston eatery called Trio, says he opened Green Zebra (named after an heirloom tomato), to “cook for my vegetarian friends — both of them.”
Green Zebra is located at 1460 West Chicago Avenue, near downtown Chicago. The web address is: www.greenzebrachicago.com
