  • Metromix Chicago - Print Page 2/21/10 11:00 AM
    New global eats - Metromix Chicago - Print Page 2/21/10 11:00 AM Restaurants New global eats Learn how to tell your lagman from your lassi with this primer on seldom-seen-in-Chicago cuisines By Erin Brereton Burned out on burgers and pizza? Expand your palate at one of these four recently opened--or about-to-open--restaurants offering international eats not often found in Chicago. Jibek Jolu (pictured) Meat-eaters will go mad for this Lincoln Square eatery's Kyrgyzstani beef and lamb dishes, which are served with white rice or potatoes. Food fundamentals: Co-owner Marat Bilimbekov says Jibek Jolu is the first restaurant in the city to serve Kyrgyzstani cuisine, which includes Russian, Mongolian and Persian influences in traditional meat-based dishes and soups. Sipping suggestions: Jibek Jolu is BYOB, and red wine is a good match for the hearty entrees. Need an unleaded option? Try a glass of airan, a cold, slightly salty milk drink. Distinctive dishes: Manti, large dumplings filled with beef, onion and pumpkin ($8); lagman ($8), a beef-based dish that includes bacon, green and red peppers, and the restaurant's homemade noodles. Klopa Grill & Cafe Much of this Lincoln Square restaurant's menu focuses on traditional pork- and beef-based Serbian dishes, but the way they're prepared is new to Chicago, says co-owner Nash Zivkovic. "We have a few Serbian restaurants and cafes [in Chicago]. But we didn't have a place for Serbian grilled food." Food fundamentals: Klopa serves all of its grilled entrees Serbian-style--that is, with a side of chopped raw onions and French fries.
