Visit the seafood boil concept in the South Loop (as well as Lakeview and Chinatown) for a recreation of a sweet trip south when you'd stop for a bag o' seafood after a day of swimming in the ocean. Belly up to the picnic table with your mallet and appetite to chow down on your protein choices: shrimp, mussels, Snow or King crab legs, crawfish, chicken wings or lobster. Pick a sauce and heat level, add-ons like potatoes, Andouille sausage or corn on the cob and even some tasty extras like cornbread and garlic noodles. There's a veggie boil, too, that can be enlivened with one of the tasty sauces. Everything is cooked just right: potatoes are not mushy and cornbread is moist, beignets authentic, sizable mussels, fresh-tasting shrimp. The most popular item is the Payday combo that includes shrimp and Snow crab with corn, potato and a side of cornbread.
It's messy, delightful and delish.
