Get a taste of the latest 'Top Chef'

As you wait for “Top Chef” alum Dale Levitski to finally open his hotly anticipated Loop restaurant, Town & Country, you can at least get a taste of what he’s up to in the kitchen. Try “Dine with Dale,” a new Thursday-night supper club at West Town’s Relax Lounge.

Says Urbandaddy:

Show up this Thursday night around 7 p.m., and you’ll find candlelit tables replacing Relax’s normal cushioned seating cubes, and burgers and fries taking the night off in favor of a three-course menu that changes every week and includes things like citrus salad, chicken with sausage guazetto (slow-cooked sausage), even a stewed winter fruit topped with vanilla goat cheese ice cream.
