Chicago’s Grace Awarded Two Michelin Stars; Next Snubbed Again

Curtis Duffy, an ex-chef de cuisine at Alinea, Chicago’s only three-Michelin-starred restaurant, was awarded two stars today for Grace, his year-old tasting menu spot, the Red Guide announced.

Grace, in Chicago’s West Loop, charges $185 for about nine courses of “flora” or “fauna.” The restaurant’s website describes the fare as “micro-seasonal” and “thoughtfully progressive.”
