The tortilla de fideo was just a squid inked flattened noodle cake? Did you enjoy it?

Sorry, that was just a copy-and-paste error, there should have been a comma... it was a bowl of very well-made squid ink fideos, and a plate of tortillas (apparently I was supposed to make tacos, but I got distracted by the plating and just ate it...).

That meal at Frontera Grill looked great, and they have outdoor dining on their patio. I'll be in Chicago from August 10-27. Do you all think it'll be hard to get reservations for two there for their patio, and did you like your meal there better than at Tzuco, which looks a bit more expensive?

While I enjoyed Tzuco, I think Frontera was better (and yes, a bit cheaper too). I don't really have a sense for how hard it is to get reservations there, I am normally planning these things several months out, so it hasn't been an issue. But it's easy to find out, they use Resy.
