All year long, NBC Chicago Food Guy Steve Dolinsky has been diving into "Chicago Classics."They're restaurants that are at least 15 years old with consistently good food and atmosphere that you'd be proud to take a tourist to. Tonight, that's Piccolo Sogno, located in the city's River West neighborhood. The brainchild of a chef who worked at Coco Pazzo for a decade before, this River West gem continues to fire on all cylinders showing no signs of slowing down.

The Mexican state of Michoacán is often referred to as “The Soul of Mexico,” partly for its culture, partly for its food. It’s the world’s largest grower of avocados, but also the birthplace of carnitas, which our Food Guy says are produced with dedication by a family celebrating 50 years in business. They’re marking the occasion by opening their third location, and it’s a big one. NBC Chicago's Steve Dolinsky takes a look inside.

With the season of Lent now underway, many Catholics turn their attention away from meat. That means not only the arrival of the pepper-and-egg sandwich at your local beef stand, but also a focus on seafood. Our Food Guy says there’s a pair of suburban fish markets where they sell wholesale and retail, plus serve their catch in a casual restaurant. Old School fish markets like Hagen’s on the Northwest Side or Calumet Fisheries down south will see a bump in business over the next few weeks.

There’s fantastic Korean food in Glenview and Northbrook, but The Food Guy Steve Dolinsky says a barbecue restaurant in Niles has instantly become his favorite. Like a lot of Korean barbecue houses, this one features several cuts of beef – some marinated – as well as side dishes and stews. But it’s a special all-in-one tasting menu that impressed me the most, and both the quality and variety of the beef is what has brought me back a couple of times already.

While Buffalo may not have made it to the Super Bowl, you can bet plenty of folks will be diving into that city’s famous wings at parties everywhere this Sunday. And yet NBC Chicago's Food Guy Steve Dolinsky takes the road less traveled, a trio of chicken wings, inspired by three different Asian countries. Buffalo may have served as inspiration, but there’s no denying the chicken wings at Cà Phê Dá and Dang Good Wings in Pilsen take their cue from Vietnam.
