With Charlie Trotter’s closing in Chicago this August, we at Getta!Table started wondering what restaurants that opened this year would be able to have the same longevity. (Charlie Trotter’s opened in 1987 and remained one of the windy city’s most popular dining destinations.) As they say, great minds think alike, because our friends at Zagat just released a list of new restaurants that have a chance of survival, and we pretty much agreed! They are:
