El Molino del Sureste
Yucatecan
El Molino del Sureste is a Yucatecan restaurant where deep jade walls and patterned benches make you briefly forget you're a few minutes from Lindenwood Park. The namesake molino sits front and center, grinding nixtamalized corn into the tortillas that show up with nearly everything. The chef was a James Beard semifinalist for Best Chef: Midwest, which tracks for a place that treats a turkey-and-sausage relleno as a weeknight option.

Pulpo en su tinta
“Use them to sop up the inky chile sauce from the pulpo en su tinta, or scrape up the last bits of the relleno negro—turkey wrapped around a recado negro-spiced sausage, crisped to order and served in a rich chilmole.”
