New Harvest Menu At Sullivan’s Steakhouse

Leave a comment

Harvest in Chicago brings with it a bounty of delicious fall time produce. As local farmers transition to August and September, produce evolves to autumn favorites like corn, brussels sprouts, beets and arugula. Working with Illinois-based purveyors, the Executive Chef of Sullivan’s Steakhouse in Chicago, Jim Teutemacher, has developed two brand-new seasonal menu items that will only be available August and September at the restaurant: Golden Beet Salad with Arugula & Goat Cheese Beignets and Sweet Corn & Lobster Bread Pudding. The beet salad features tea-smoked pecans and a delicious cider vinaigrette, while the bread pudding is made with a sourdough bread base and topped with a sweet corn lobster salad that has been simply dressed with a light vinaigrette, basil, salt and pepper.

 

Sullivan’s, located in River North at Dearborn and Hubbard, is known for hand-cuts of steak, fresh seafood, delectable side dishes, mouth-watering desserts and award-winning wine list. The restaurant features nightly live entertainment in the bar area, so Sullivan’s is a top destination for guests to experience a complete night out on the town – with food, drinks and entertainment under one roof.
