Hi everyone!

Can anyone suggest any good chinese and indian resturants in Chicago. I am going there for this weekend. I am planning to go to the chinatown and Indiantown but do not know which resturant are good. Also what else can I do there this weekend beside museums? Thanks for the help in advance.

Sgy, i will mail you the gift certificate. send me your address. :)

Shere Punjab?? ImI, you kidding?? You refer a restaurant like that to someone who is going Chicago for food. It's so cheap and ugly, never ever go there other than to fart.
Tiffin definitely a good choice.

So purush, If its cheap and ugly does that means food is not good??Do people go for food or look at the showcase of resturant.I have seen lot of white americans going into that restaurants if it was so bad would anybody prefer that..Well its up to her to go or no go.i just don't care.I am not getting commision out of it.May tiffin very well be good or whatever you say.I tried there food cause i am poor and can't afford expensive places ok!!if that makes you feel any better.

Chinese : 3400 North Halsted - Bunch of good chinese restaurants there!!!

I love DC_virus. Are you from DC or chicago? If you're in chicago then maybe we can go out sometime. What do you say sweetie?

Thanks Slipknot. If you are who I think you are, a mutual friend of our's used to give me gift certificate to The Rivers - fancy spancy place in downtown Chicago right on Chicago river. The woodfired steak there was the best I have ever had.

So yes, I should recommend that place too.

"The Rivers"
Best for woodfired steak. But quite an expensive dig, around $35 for a steak dinner. With drinks, tax and tip, your bill could reach easily around $70 per person. That's way out of my league, but once in a while at special occasion, this is definitely a place to have a meal.

I don't know why people want to taste the same chinese and indian food if you are travelling...try for different food which you never had before ...it will be good to try differnet taste of food ....when ever i go any places indians and chinese are the last option..

ss74k, points well taken. But I stick with Nepali, indian and chinese along with mexican food while I am travelling because I know they taste good and I like it.

But it's a personal preference.

Sgy: Gift Certificate offer is still on. Visit mteverestrestaurant.com and email me your mailing address. :)

Why so descrimination on food .Food is food Dhoti food and changre food re.hahaha
Don't you eat nepali food everyday!!!may be not but i am sure you are more used to nepali then chinese or indian.Then again the creator is specfily asking for chinese and indian.If she had asked nepali then would think that make sense to recommend nepali resturant.

punti is bepatta ni. She might have already started her trip and didn't get chance to check back to Sajha.

Puuurush

This is funny. Punti started this whole thing and she is no where to be seen.A good discussion on food.lol.now i think punti has been to chicago already ate and we here in sajah will still be suggesting her food.hahahahah

Nevermind, personal 'riis' justo cha ni. As far as I know, the owner of the Restaurant is super nice guy. Food is also good.

Same goes for the Himalayn food and the owners.

Just letting Punti know that there are couple of Nepalese Restaurants in Chicago. Non personal IMI, seem to love Indian food, well good for you. Lots of places dont have "Nepalese" so thought Punti could visit those. I believe she is in Chicago for the weekend so as usual Nevermind.

I agree with nevermind when he said owners of Nepelese restaurnats suck. Slipknot, You should be either the owner or the relatives of them to say they are nice. I've heard that they exploit the fellow Nepali workers there very much.
I have visited them and found the food to be delicious. Anyway I recommend to have food in any of those restaurnats. You don't really have to see or speak with the owners as such.

Amriteeeeeeeeeee

Thanks a lot to everyone who gave useful suggestions : )
I didn't get to try any restaurant that is suggested above. I got unexpectedly busy. I end up eating in the hotel I stayed in : (
Maybe next time. Thanks a lot anyways!

HAhAHAHAHAHA..good one punti!
