About Maxwells Trading
American restaurant serving a menu shaped by Asian influences and deeply American traditions. Chef-Partner Erling Wu-Bower and Executive Chef Chris Jung develop dishes that reflect their backgrounds, including Chinese, Louisiana, Korean, New York City, and D.C. influences. Ingredients from The Roof Crop urban farm above the dining room contribute to the menu, including honey and collaboratively selected crops. The restaurant is connected to a collective of food, design, and sustainability-focused businesses at 1516 W. Carroll Avenue, with composting, recycling, and upcycling efforts supporting a closed-loop system. Maxwells Trading was created as a place to unwind, eat, drink, and listen to music with family and friends. It operates in Chicago.
