Eat these lobster Rangoons at Le Ono in O'Fallon, Illinois

The lobster Rangoons at Le Ono are reason enough to pay a visit to this French Polynesian restaurant.

Each serving includes four crispy Rangoons filled with fresh lobster claw and knuckle meat, cream cheese and finely chopped scallions. But the pièce de résistance is the housemade sweet chile sauce: a mix of honey, tamari, Sriracha, sesame oil and rice wine vinegar. Its subtle, sweet start is followed by a sneaky heat, both of which are harmonized by the cheese filling. Save the sauce! It also enhances most other dishes on the menu.
