In 1977, WBBM Newsradio 780 restaurant critic Sherman Kaplan brought his restaurant reviews together in book form for the first time. The tradition he began 23 years ago continues today with the 9th edition of Chicago's Best Restaurants. Kaplan's latest revision focuses not only on restaurants which are of interest to tourists, but also those which Chicago area residents will want to explore.
