With new flavors for winter, Shiraz on the Water, the contemporary American restaurant and lounge at Bloomingdale’s Hilton Chicago/Indian Lakes Resort, presents a new weekly dinner special, dessert menu and seasonal cocktail list. All three offerings are available nightly during dinner service and in the lounge.

Executive Chef Carol Buckantz now offers seasonal specials Tuesday through Saturday evenings. While the entree will change each week, her most recent dinner specials have been seared duck breast with port cherry balsamic reduction and a wild rice blend with cranberries; macadamia nut-crusted mahi-mahi with tropical relish over sweet potato mashed; and stuffed prawns with crab.

Pastry Chef Simonette Gallardo’s new dessert dishes include Bananas Foster Cheesecake, Caramel Apple Bread Pudding and Shiraz Poached Pear, among other sweet treats.

Cocktail crafters will tend to three new libations: the Black Forest Martini, Northern Lights and the Vixen.
