  • Wine & Dine XXI Chef Zubair Mohajir

    $110.00 per person

    Prepaid

    Aug 20, 2025 only
    Wine & Dine: Top Chef Edition XXI In collaboration with Top Chef season 22 Alum, Zubair Mohajir, we are bringing you a four course dining experience. 4 Course Menu + Wine Pairing $165per Person (not inclusive of Taxes, Fees, and Service Charges) Dinner Only: $110.00 + wine pairing $55.00 Please make note of any dietary restriction and allergy, we will do our best to accommodate. (Please note this is a special menu so we may not be able to accommodate last minute request.) Chef Zubair Mohajir’s path to culinary success was anything but conventional. After losing his finance job in the 2008 crash, he pivoted to the kitchen, starting as an underpaid prep cook and turning adversity into opportunity. He honed his craft at The Pump Room, mastered French techniques at Thomas Keller’s Bouchon, and pushed creative boundaries at Gaggan in Bangkok, absorbing global influences along the way. Returning to Chicago, he evolved Wazwan into Lilac Tiger, The Coach House, and Mirra—restaurants that boldly weave his Indian heritage, global travels, and personal faith into every dish. His food isn’t just a meal; it’s a story on a plate.

    Everything from start to finish was outstanding. The food was creative, full of flavor, and beautifully presented. The drinks were just as impressive, especially the carajillo, which was truly one of a kind. The service was attentive and warm, making the entire evening feel special. Highly recommend JŪN for anyone looking for a unique and memorable dining experience.

    Food was excellent. It was recommended we order 4 dishes and shared. The fried chicken had a great crispy crust. Empanada was a little dry. The Asian influence with southern/latin American food was unique and so good. Definitely will go again
