A trip to the suburbs can sometimes reap great discoveries, such as chef Jonathan Clarke's elegant dining room. Its Victorian-Edwardian décor is velvety and formal, but this is definitely a neighborhood establishment. The kitchen's creations---vaguely Continental with Northwestern touches---are often intriguing and executed with considerable flair. Some restaurants flop at seafood risotto, but Clarke's version, made rich with shrimp, lobster and tomato coulis, is buttery and unctuous. Veal scaloppine in a wild mushroom sauce is alone worth the drive. Be sure to save room for the imaginative desserts.
