FYI - Saw this on another board – it’s part of an annual festival called the Good Food Festivalcelebrating local growers and their partnership with Chicago restaurants and the Chicago Reader is a sponsor.
The party is called Localicious and it looks like a blast! It’s Friday March 15 at the UIC Forum from 7:00 – 9:00 pm.
Tickets online are $75 but if you look at the page and who’s gonna be there slinging food and booze/beer it should be well worth it, plus it’s a good cause.
