Chicago Gourmet 2009

In Chicago Fests on October 14, 2009 at 2:51 AM

Alright, I know it’s been over two weeks, but I just wanted to share a couple of pics from our visit to Chicago Gourmet. Not a bad event overall, but not worth the price for us since we’re not wine enthusiasts. If only there was a non-alcoholic guest option….

I did enjoy the brief live cooking demos and even spotted a couple of celebrity chefs. Looking forward to checking out Stephanie Izard’s The Drunken Goat (opening Spring 2010) and Rick Bayless’ latest, XOCO (pronounced sho-ko). Also on the horizon, Marcus Samuelsson’s new cookbook “New American Table.”
