Big Bowl

Noodles continue to be trendy, as this stylish, affordable Asian chain opens its fourth Chicago location. The interior is characteristically smart, with contemporary light-grained wood and bowl-shaped banquettes. The menu features five kinds of fresh noodles and chicken potstickers and dumplings. The emphasis is on fresh flavours – even the peanut sauce is prepared with home-roasted peanuts. At an interactive stir-fry bar patrons choose from an array of vegetables to be wok-cooked with their choice of sauces, and chicken or beef atop noodles or rice.
