    Hello there!

    Ok so my family is going to be coming to town in a few weeks and I'm looking for a good restaurant to take them to. I'm thinking that the average entree should cost around 20-25. I'm pretty much open to any type of food but I'd like it to be a little more high class.

    Thanks for your help.

    It's okay, but I found it tough to answer because I don't really know what, besides a price range, you're looking for. Are they adventurous? Unadventurous? Would they try ethnic or do they want steak, or Italian, or beautiful people? A few clues would make this possible to narrow down to an answer...

    Probably not exactly what you're looking for, but I had my family in town last weekend, and we went to dinner at Hae Woon Dae. Grandma didn't like it - she said it was on par with the Ethiopean place we went to 15 years ago ... but I don't think there's any other meal from 15 years ago that she's still talking about. Everyone else loved it - especially the kids, who loved grilling their own meat.

    So, to make up for the over-the-top exotic experience at Hae Woon Dae, we had a breakfast of good, old-fashioned (with creative twists) comfort food at The Lucky Platter.

    Hai Woon Dae
    6240 N. California Ave., Chicago
    (773) 764-8018

    Lucky Platter
    514 Main St., Evanston
    (847) 869-4064.
