With the religious observances of Easter (April 5) and Passover (April 1-9) taking place soon, Chicago-area spots are preparing for what they’re hoping are the masses of families that will celebrate. Below are some of what restaurants are offering:
—Celebrate Easter Sunday at Sunda New Asian River North (110 W. Illinois St.) at 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Known for its bold flavors and inventive take on traditional Asian cuisine, Sunda is putting its signature spin on the classic Easter buffet with items such as an Asian-inspired hot bar (with pork belly adobo, chicken inasal and Korean beef stew, among other items); carving, build-your-own-omelet, and seafood/sushi stations; and desserts like the ube white-chocolate fountain and mini-cheesecakes.
