April in Paris? Mais oui! Or just take a ride to Roscoe Village's Le Sud. The popular French-Mediterranean spot offers a rooftop patio that transports you to a garden in the south of France. Flowers and herbs scent the air, wine barrel fire pits warm you if there's a sudden Chicago chill and proprietor Sandy Chen shows how a trip to the villages of Provence inspired her decor. A retractable patio roof has been added so guests can dine outside no matter the weather. New events include a French movie night, monthly themed wine tastings, midweek prix fixe menu ($36) and kids eat free Sundays.
New executive chef Michael Woodhall's Provencal-influenced food includes roasted beet Napoleon; Salade Nicoise; rabbit stew; steak frites; bouillabaisse; a fabulous burger; and Fettuccine Parisienne. Don't miss Basque cake and house-made ice creams and you'll say, "merci."
