Foodie spotlight dish of the week: Steak frites at Foodie spotlight dish of the week: Steak frites at @cafe.touche in Edison Park (you’ll find this dish featured in our big fall issue)

Touché’s version of this Parisian staple is a thick 12-ounce NY strip or eight-ounce filet, cooked to your liking with a bordelaise (wine-and-marrow-based brown sauce) or au poivre (bold, creamy peppercorn pan sauce), all with a pad of butter melting over the top as it arrives at your table. Worth mentioning, too, that Wednesdays are half-price bottles of wine at Touche, and martinis are $8 on Thursdays.
