Best pan-Asian restaurants in Chicago

Bill Kim moved Urbanbelly from Avondale to Randolph Street in 2013, but that wasn't the only change: he added a small wine, beer and sake list, a kid's menu and a few new menu items, cooked in a new wok. The new space is adjacent to BellyQ and twice as large as the old one. As before, you order at the counter, then grab a seat. Start with dumplings. There are classics, like the pork- and cilantro-stuffed potstickers, but there are also more adventurous offerings including the beef and cheddar or sweet potato and maple options. The pork and pineapple fried rice consists of fried jasmine rice that's laden with knobs of pork belly and pineapple, and is only enhanced with a shake of the housemade hot sauces that sit on the table. But we saved the best item for last—the peanut butter and jelly sundae is a must-order. Vanilla soft serve is topped with huckleberry jelly and peanut butter crunchies, and it's a delicious and whimsical dessert.
