LIGHTS CAMERA NAPKIN
IT’S SHOWTIME!
This year’s Bon Appétit presents Chicago Gourmet is celebrating all things food & entertainment, and it’s going to be epic.
Of course there’s the awesome Chicago Gourmet main event weekend in Millennium Park with celebrity chef cooking demos, expert wine & cocktail seminars, and delicious food, wine, spirits, and beer tastings. Plus, there’s an encore. From an exclusive Hamilton theatre night with Rick Bayless, to a fun stand-up comedy show with Jeff Mauro, to a Chili Cook-off with Sarah Grueneberg, special entertainment-inspired culinary events throughout the week will bring down the house.
We extend a special thank you to Mayor Lori Lightfoot for her enthusiasm and support. We also appreciate the support of title sponsor Bon Appétit magazine and presenting sponsor, Southern Glazer’s Wine & Spirits. Assembling such great talent would be impossible without their efforts and we sincerely thank them, and our many generous sponsors.
And thank YOU for joining us this September in Chicago, the culinary capitol of the world in our opinion.
Now, places everyone—it’s time for Lights, Camera, Napkin!
Cheers!
