Latin American Food

As the defending champions of the World Cup kick their way through the tournament this year, it's a good chance to survey Argentine food in Chicago.

At West Town’s Dell’ Rooster, Chef Miguel Tenesaca cooks up a pan-Latin menu of colorful dishes for brunch and dinner daily. He shares some favorite Chicago places.

Omarcito's in Logan Square, which recently won the Jean Banchet Award for Best Counter Service, serves up home-style Latin American plates and handhelds. Owner and chef Omar Cadena, "a big softie with big energy and a big voice," wants everyone to feel loved and included when they walk up to the window.
