​​Smyth Review: A Solid (But Not Mind-Blowing) 3-Star Experience ⭐⭐⭐​​

📍 ​​Smyth​​ 177 N Ada St, Chicago, IL As part of my ​​Chicago Michelin star crawl​​, Smyth delivered ​​some highs​​ (lobster custard!!) and ​​some "mehs"​​ (avocado, really?). Worthy of ​​3 stars​​? Yes—but with caveats. ​​🌟 Top 3 Dishes (Worth the Hype)​​ 🦞 ​​Lobster Box​​: ​​Custard + egg yolk + raspberry​​ = savory-sweet perfection. ​​Best bite ever​​. 🍩 ​​Crab Donut​​: Sweet, fluffy, packed with ​​fresh crab​​—divine. 🥚 ​​Quail Egg​​: Explodes with ​​runny yolk magic​​—simple but genius. ​​😐 The "Why Though?" Courses​​ 🥑 ​​Avocado​​: Literally just… avocado. At a 3-star? 😒 🌰 ​​Caviar + Almonds​​: Fine, but ​​forgettable​​. 🎋 ​​Asparagus​​: Tasted like… asparagus. Where’s the wow? ​​🍖 Meat-Lover’s Gripes​​ ​​Too veggie-heavy​​ for my taste (where’s the ​​wagyu or duck?!​​). ​​Quail + Lamb​​: Well-cooked but ​​no fireworks​​. ​​🍭 Dessert Letdowns​​ 🍌 ​​Banana Pudding + Caviar​​: Weird combo (not bad, not great). 🍬 ​​Petit Fours​​: Too sweet, too basic. ​​💡 Final Verdict​​ ​​Highs​​: ​​Lobster box, crab donut, quail egg​​ = Michelin-worthy. ​​Lows​​: ​​Avocado, asparagus, caviar almonds​​ = head-scratchers. ​​Vibes​​: Cozy, unfussy—no stuffy 3-star pretension. #MichelinGuide #SmythChicago #FineDining #HitOrMiss #FoodieReview
