Lake Superior Whitefish with Pine and Celery Root

📍 Chicago New American $$$$

at Smyth

"Smyth's Lake Superior whitefish with pine and celery root is the Midwest's natural resources expressed through a fine dining lens. Sustainably caught whitefish, pine needle oil from a forager, foamed celery root, and roe. The dish tastes like the Great Lakes and the forests that surround them. This is the kind of cooking that makes Chicago's fine dining scene worth discussing."
