Our take: Soul food seduction in the heart of Chicago: Luella’s is where the South rises again, one perfectly fried chicken at a time. Bring your favorite bourbon – it’s about to get real comfortable up in here.
Wine Pairing: Southern comfort food begs for a lush, fruit-forward Zinfandel or a buttery Chardonnay. For a wild card, bring a sparkling Vouvray to cut through rich dishes.
Beer Pairing: A crisp Kölsch or wheat beer complements fried chicken perfectly. For richer dishes, a creamy Milk Stout adds a delicious layer of indulgence.
Spirits Pairing: Bourbon is king here. Try Woodford Reserve or, for a local twist, Few Bourbon from Evanston. A smooth Tennessee whiskey like George Dickel is also a winner.
