Thursday, June 25, Trump International Hotel & Tower Chicago will unveil The Terrace at Trump, the property's much-anticipated outdoor venue located on the 16th Floor. This chic, outdoor oasis will showcase a dramatic vista of the Chicago skyline, including the historic Wrigley Clock Tower and Tribune Building, as well a picturesque view of Lake Michigan and the Chicago River. In emphasizing the superior service and modern American fare for which Executive Chef Frank Brunacci has been lauded, The Terrace at Trump will offer a specially created menu served alongside a variety of boutique wines and hand-crafted cocktails.
Guests will be escorted to The Terrace at Trump via Sixteen's Bridges Room, one of the restaurant's two, intimate dining spaces. They will be met with a lush, serene ambiance punctuated by vivid landscaping and a contemporary color scheme of rich espressos and creams. Comfortable lounge, table and bar seating will accommodate up to 75 guests. With the Chicago River in their direct sightline, guests will also appreciate a first-hand view of Chicago's summer fireworks display, taking place every Wednesday and Saturday evening now through Labor Day.
Chef Brunacci has developed a special menu, independent of that at Sixteen, that is available outdoors on The Terrace at Trump, as well as indoors in the Bridges Room. His seasonal touch is apparent in items like:
Cheese - a thoughtfully chosen array from the world's finest producers
($25)
Fresh oysters on the half shell with house-made hot sauce ($12)
Summer gnocchi with fresh corn, jumbo lump and spinach ($15/$24)
Prime sirloin burger with farmhouse cheddar and caramelized onions on
brioche ($19)
Berkshire pork chop with horseradish potato mash, roasted peaches and
smoked pork jus ($25)
Side of truffle fries ($7)
Sommelier Steven Lee has assembled a thoughtful selection of boutique wines by the bottle and glass, with a special accent on rose wines, ideal for enjoyment during Chicago's hot summer months. A menu of refreshing, hand-crafted cocktails will also be available (all $14).
The Terrace at Trump will be open Sunday through Wednesday from 4 to 11 p.m. and Thursday through Saturday from 4 to 11:30 p.m. Reservations are not available.
