Thanks, foodhoe.

At restaurants, I typically use my Canon S80. It's a little bigger than the typical Canon point and shoots, but it has full manual controls and has served me well. I usually already feel a bit self conscious about taking pictures (although I quickly get over it) at restaurants, so I like to avoid lugging a big SLR.

For the rest of my pictures on the blog, I use a Canon 30D.

It's definitely worth checking out the restaurant. I've contemplated making a trip out to Chicago just for another meal!

Hey Chu,

My jaw has dropped and I can’t get it to close! such beautiful pictures – what camera do you use please? I’ve never been but keep seeing such compelling documentation about the presentation and techniques used that I’m really thinking about making a trip out there. Am also intrigued to see what kind of food a chef with limited tastebuds produces…

Oh man, no wine? That’s too bad, I’ll bet it would have made the whole thing that much better

Next time….

Holy Hell. I’m exhausted and still kind of sick and without a sense of taste, and I’m sitting here, enraptured by your play-by-play of this unbelievable food. My mouth is watering…
