Antony and Cleopatra : The Cuisine
The passionate excess of Antony and Cleopatra is exemplified by the quote, "Eight wild boars roasted whole at a breakfast, and but twelve persons there. Is this true?" (Act II, scene 2). Using this as culinary inspiration, Chef Kevin Cuddihee presents homemade boar sausage, potato hash and a fried quail egg.
Chef Kevin Cuddihee
Overseeing the farm-to-table restaurant that received Michelin’s 2014 Bib Gourmand honor, Cuddihee has spent his years as a chef in two distinctive aspects of the kitchen. Before joining the team at TWO as Chef de Cuisine in 2012, he honed his talents in a more personal domain as a private chef. Cuddihee proved his proficiency in both the restaurant and intimate dining sectors as he completed an externship at Chicago’s prestigious Alinea before graduating from Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Chicago in 2008.
About TWO
The comfortable atmosphere, with artful second-life décor, makes TWO a perfect West Side neighborhood gathering place. Influenced by the quality and tradition of family run butcher shops, TWO sources from trusted, small mid-western farms. They are often the first Chicago restaurant to feature renowned items, such as the heritage Hampshire pork, on their menu. TWO chefs make all their bacon, sausage, jerky, cheese, sauces and pastas in house and are constantly exploring new and seasonal dishes to feature those ingredients.
