✨ HighlightI found out this place through Instagram reels, and was not disappointed when I came to visit. The store felt very similar to malls in China, and everything was clean and organized. The food options here are particularly unique, with everything from claypot to dim sum to sushi. We tried food from the 312 Fish Market, the claypot stall, and the Northeastern Food Stall. The mala beef burrito (麻辣牛肉卷)was definitely the best bang for your buck, but the salmon don had some of the best quality fish I've tasted. The claypot rice got better with time (I enjoyed it more as leftovers than in the initial meal), and the greens were tender and perfect for balancing out the meal. We also stopped at the bakery stall, which offered a fresh selection of bakery classics in addition to some trendy items such as puddings, mousses, and soufflé cakes. The cake was light and fluffy and the egg tarts had an excellent flaky pastry crust. I can't wait to come back and try more stalls! The boba shop downstairs also looked quite promising.→

✨ HighlightIf you love sushi and find yourself in Chicago, look no further than Sushi Dokku! One of the coolest concepts I have been to in recent memory. We made reservations for the Booze Box downstairs below the main dining area. It is intimate and dark. Booth seating surrounds the bar and a DJ booth sets in the corner for the weekend events. The menu is full of surprises and you need to try a little bit of everything. The salad prepared our taste buds by waking them up. We then got punched with flavor and heat by the Hot Daisy roll. Then soothed by the dumplings only to be mesmerized by the unmatched flavor and perfection of the lamb chops. Do not sleep on these chops! Eat them now! Enjoy!→
