Prasino

This place is in the suburbs of Chicago, in LaGrange. The only other place I would eat at, in this general area would be Al’s Charhouse. I admit that I don’t often eat organic or healthy, but I must say that I was a little surprised after eating here. It was pretty okay. I’d probably revisit the place given the chance and try other dishes out.

From their website:

Of the dishes we had, I’d say that my friend’s Line Caught Ahi Tuna, Sesame Seared Rare was the most delicious and fresh tasting. I didn’t care for the organic cola much, it did taste somewhat flat– I’m not sure if it’s supposed to taste that way or not. Overall, I liked the place.
