Fresh from the drama surrounding the closings of Table 34 and Bramare, Chef Joe Valdez has taken over the kitchen at Basilico, the modern, elegant Italian restaurant in the Evora Apartment complex on S. Buffalo, between Sunset & Russell. Joe explains what he's kept and what he's changed since assuming the Executive Chef role. Also: news of a big James Trees birthday event, Big B's Barbecue's West Side location, a smashburger popup at Resorts World and some big stars coming to The Golden Tiki. Also, Al, Gem and Rich recount recent visits to Taco Escobar, Delilah, Evolve Brewing, Flanker and Aromi (among many others!).
