This weather makes me think of comfort food, specifically beef stroganoff. Where can I get a good beef stroganoff in Chicago? Preferably in Lakeview, preferably at a diner-type (read: not-too-expensive) place.

TIA.

Red Rooster Wine Bar and Cafe:  2100 N Halsted St., Chicago, IL 60614 (773) 929-7660  

They use beef tenderloin in their stroganoff, and the portion is BIG!  I highly recommend it.

Look up the recipe and make it, it's easy.  Unless you can't cook.

It's the Thursday Night special at the Archview Cafe on Archer and 35th!  And it's great!

Beef Stroganoff is one of those dishes which, even I could find a respectable version at a decent restaurant, I would never ever order it just because I was exposed to too many bad grocery-bought variations of it while I was growing up.  Same with Salisbury Steak - I'm convinced that Salisbury Steak was invented especially for frozen dinners since I've never seen it offered on the menu of any respectable eatery.

Mr. B- you hit the nail on the head with the Salsbury Steak.  The worst in the world- the frozen On-Cor kind, with the carmelized fake grill marks and the mysterious congeling gravy product.

Try Zhivago on Gross Point near Central in Evanston.  I believe they have it on their menu and it is a Russian restaurant.

If it is made properly with a high quality sourcream and top cut beef, it's wonderful (and fattening!)
