| Chez Moi is a newly established French restaurant owned by Chef Dominique Tougne located in Lincoln Park. Shai Chung from Drunk On Shoes recommended that we dine at Chez Moi and she could not have picked a better place! Whimsical chandeliers grace the dining room providing a warmly lit, intimate atmosphere. The decor of Chez Moi is meticulously detailed from the dinnerware to how the napkins are folded. Make your reservations while you can because I anticipate Chez Moi becoming extremely popular! |

| The corners of the tables are singed with the restaurant's name. |

| Chef Dominique told Shai that the dinner linens are folded in the exact same way his late father folded his dinner linen after a meal. How adorably thoughtful! |
 |
| Petits poivrons Basque. Mini pepper sauteed and marinated in extra virgin olive oil and garlic. |

 |
| Boasts with flavor and cheesy goodness! Definitely order this! |
 |
| Moules marinieres, pommes frites a la graisse de canard. Mussel marinieres. |
 |
| The broth was buttery and delish! I was dipping both the bread and fries to savor the wonderful broth! |
 |
| Duck fat fries accompany the mussels. |
|
| Saint-Jacques poellées sur polenta crèmeuse, caramel d’épices aux baies roses. Sauteed Maine scallops, creamy polenta and spiced honey reduction |
