• fariña primero tinta de toro $13 “first we eat, then we do everything else.” named after american food writer m.f.k. fisher, mfk. is an intimate neighborhood spot inspired by the coastal cooking of catalonia and the basque region of spain. the menu is seafood-forward with plenty of smaller plates meant for sharing, and i really liked starting with a bunch of little bites here. the suzuki crudo and ahi tuna poké tacos were both generously portioned for one-bite dishes, while the seared scallops came with a slightly tart stone fruit gazpacho that helped balance everything out. for something more substantial, the fideos came out in a big pot before the reveal of toasted capellini with saffron cream, shrimp, smoked pork, and mussels. the grilled branzino was another interesting one, topped with crispy rice and gochujang vinaigrette for a little extra texture and flavor. definitely the kind of menu where i’d order a bunch for the table and have a drink or two alongside everything. finished with the butterscotch crème brûlée and basque cake for dessert. hosted by @mfkrestaurant 📍 432 w diversey pkwy, chicago, il 60614
