New Restaurant Coming to Palmer House Hilton

October 17, 2007 at 11:24 AM | 0 Comments

The Palmer House Hilton will soon have a shiny new restaurant to match its gleaming lobby. We're a little suspicious of the "November" opening date, but Lockwood Restaurant is scheduled to open soon, with French and Italian food perfect for the expense account crowd.

Executive Chef Phillip Foss will skirt Chicago's foie gras ban with "faux gras" (duck liver terrine) then follow it with entrees like osso bucco, pan roasted codfish and "surf, turf and turf," a combo of tenderloin, short ribs and lobster. Obviously, a lengthy list of wines will be on hand.

Dessert is more interesting than you might imagine. Chicago is the home of the brownie, and Lockwood will serve its version with milk mousse, shiraz-chocolate ice cream and an almond cookie.
