P.O.S.H.

Braised stews and pot roasts make us want to break out the sensible stoneware plates and soup bowls, good durable stuff that looks right with a hunk of meat sitting in it. P.O.S.H. Chicago is a perfect place to shop for this kind of dinnerware - restaurant china and place settings built for long, practical use in diners and trattorias. This basic 5-piece place setting is $22. We also like these Bouillon Cups.
