​​Hidden Gem in Chicago's Wealthy District: Le Colonial​​

I visited this place with my white colleagues, and apparently, it started in New York before expanding internationally. Gotta say—from the name to the decor, this place really leans into the colonial-era aesthetic, so Asian visitors might feel a bituneasy. 😅 It’s marketed as ​​Vietnamese + French cuisine​​, but I didn’t get much French influence. That said, ​​every single dish was delicious!​​ ​​Must-Try Dishes:​​ 🍤 ​​Seafood Ceviche​​ – A ​​must-order​​! So good I could devour an entire plate by myself. 🍗 ​​Chicken Fried Rice​​ – Surprisingly ​​next-level​​ flavor—didn’t expect it to be this amazing! ​​🍸 Cocktail Highlight:​​ The ​​Lychee Martini​​ is their ​​signature drink​​—gorgeous, refreshing, and ​​100% worth ordering!​​ Do notskip this! ✨ ​​#Food #ChicagoEats #ChicagoFoodie #FoodExploration #RestaurantRecommendations #HiddenGems #UniqueDining #VietnameseCuisine #ChicagoVietnameseFood #UpscaleDining #CocktailLovers​​
