Each day in December, I’m celebrating my best bites (and sips) in 2012, posted in chronological order.
Why it’s a Best Bite: I’ve recommended Tavernita over and over for its lively atmosphere, killer kegged cocktails, and array of creative tapas dishes. This clean, citrus-packed ceviche was a pleasant complement to richer offerings (don’t miss their pork belly bocadillos), and seemed to capture the colorful spirit of the restaurant.
The details: Tavernita, 151 W Erie St., Chicago.
