Travel Around the Mediterranean at Travelle’s Chef’s Table

Here’s a convenient way to traverse the Mediterranean without having to grapple with jet lag: dine at Travelle’s intimate Chef’s Table and eat your way across the sea through a multi-course meal prepared by executive chef Tim Graham. These private meals provide an ample, unique opportunity to delve deeper beyond the regular menu at Travelle and further explore the diverse cuisines of the Mediterranean. With a menu that changes periodically, Graham keeps things fresh by focusing on a different region per menu, starting with Greece.

But first, a peek at one of the group’s most ambitious projects to date, an uber late night dining and drinking destination in River North: Tippling Hall.
