Chefs from across the region The best meal of 2017 describe their favorite bites BY VERONICA HINI Pioneer Press

What was the best thing you ate in a Chicago-area restaurant this year? We asked area chefs, restau- - rant owners and other food professionals that same question, and here is what they told us. Every year, several restaurants receive multiple nods, and this year, Smyth restaurant in Chicago is one of string of eateries that snad raves from several people. From grab-and-go hand pies to lobster quenelles with black trumpet mushrooms, this year's choices ruil the gamut of cuisine types, price levels and fanciness.

~~Boonfor bargain hunters E BY RONALD MONTOYA AND MArr JONES Edmunds.com~~

Every December, carmakers and dealerships scramble to hit end-of-year goals and sell off vehicles from the outgoing model year. But this December might be one for the record books. Inventory is at unusually high levels, and the push to clear it will be far more aggressive than in years past. Rebates will be generous particularly on sedans, which are not nearly as popular as SUVs. So bargain hunters can find significant savings. To help you shop, here are seven deals on outgoing 2017 models that are worth close consideration. For each vehicle category, there's also a recommended car based on Edmunds reviews. These vehicles should still be available in most areas, and all have deep discounts. Keep in mind that the manufacturer's suggested retail price, discounts, incentives and rebates may vary by region.
