TAAN

TAAN is a Thai restaurant and wine bar at 2759 W Augusta Blvd in Humboldt Park from chef Chanita Chayaluk, a Chicago native and Le Cordon Bleu Bangkok graduate. The restaurant pairs seasonal Midwestern produce with Thai recipes on a rotating menu of shareable plates such as miang of trout with candied tamarind sauce, green curry of mussels, whole deep fried fish with fish sauce caramel and house-made sai oua sausage. Bar director Craig Langworthy runs a wine list focused on Midwestern and European bottles.
