Meet the team and see what's on the menu at chef Lawrence 'L.T.' Smith's new restaurant, Chilte, now open in the historic Egyptian Motor Hotel.
Owned by former NFL player and chef Lawrence"L.T." Smith and his fiancée Aseret Arroyo, the popular Chilté Tacos food stand is opening a brick-and-mortar restaurant at the Egyptian Motor Hotel on Grand Avenue on Jan. 27.
According to Arroyo, who's now the event manager for the hotel, Rebel Hospitality in Chicago saw Chilté on a Thrillist list and contacted them to become the hotel's flagship restaurant. Planters accent the space, and works by Mexican artists fill the walls. Entering the restaurant, a large portrait of a woman draws the eye. Wearing a black and red leather mask and a choker, she's thrown her head back, eyes closed, smoking a cigarette. Jet black hair falls to her neck and shoulders where three small scars are apparent."This to me is an image of a real woman, her struggles, her beauty and scars," Arroyo explained.
Though the restaurant can best be described as serving Mexican cuisine, Smith draws inspiration from all parts of the world and tries to understand how a particular food relates to the foods of his childhood and how he can incorporate global flavors into the restaurants' specials.
