๐ฝ๏ธ Chicago Dining | Perilla Steakhouse
After trying their prix fixe menu once, I couldn't stop thinking about this place! So when friends wanted to meet up, I knew exactly where to go! ๐ฅฉโค๏ธ๐ฅ This time we also tried their cocktails - in order of appearance: ๐ธ Trilateral Summit - A blend of Korean soju, Japanese yuzu wine, and Chinese baijiu. Surprisingly smooth with zero harshness! Tastes exactly like the liquor used for drunken shrimp - Jiangzhehu friends will LOVE this! ๐โจ ๐ Winter in Paradise - As someone who can't handle strong liquor, the Irish whisky + Spanish brandy combo scared me at first... but the pineapple juice made it refreshing and ultra-smooth! Instant favorite. ๐ฅ๐ ๐ฅ Virgin KBM (Mocktail) - Weird spice flavors that don't harmonize... not recommended. ๐ซ๐คจ ๐ฝ๏ธ What We Ordered ๐ง Monkey Bread - Warm bread with gochujang-honey butter = pure bliss! ๐คค๐ฅ ๐ฅฉ Steak Tartare - Their beef tartare comes with chili rings for layered texture and subtle heat that elevates everything. ๐ถ๏ธ๐ฏ ๐ Rice Cake Cacio e Pepe - My favorite from last visit! Korean rice cakes reinvented as cacio e pepe - innovative yet classic. A MUST-ORDER! ๐ง๐ ๐ฅฉ Steakhouse Premium Set - Four meats in one: Wagyu Hanger, Prime Short Rib, Wagyu Bavette, Marinated Prime Short Rib. All phenomenal quality! ๐๐ช ๐ Kimchi Fried Rice - The only miss... too oily and salty. Any neighborhood Korean joint does it better. Skip this! โ ๏ธ๐ โโ๏ธ #ChicagoKoreanFood #ChicagoEats #VibeyRestaurants #FoodAdventure #PrettyPlateClub
