Wicker Park - 1647 North Milwaukee
More comments to come...
We recently had some friends visiting from DC for the weekend and wanted to get out for a big dinner with them and some of our other great friends. We decided to go to Mado because it was an A la Card location, we had read some great reviews on Yelp, heard great things from people we knew, and really appreciated the aim of the restaurant. They're committed to using fresh and local ingredients, as well as using "the whole animal."
As with many other dishes, this one was nothing too special. The sauce, a sort of spicy mayo, was quite good but the pork skins themselves were quite boring. They were cooked well and were surprisingly not-so-greasy but there was little pork flavor. I was hoping that homemade pork skins would have a robust porkiness to them, but alas, the chicharrones from 7-eleven would be about as good.
