Fulton St.). In true definition of low and slow, pork happy chefs will be whipping up dishes that you can wash down with beer provided by Goose Island and a whiskey cocktail by Templeton Rye.
Featured chefs include:
Adrienne Lo & Abe Conlon - X-marx
Matt Troost -Three Aces
Matthew Holmes - Uncommon Ground Devon
Heather Terhune - Sable Kitchen & Bar
Mark Mendez - Vera
Andrew Hroza - Goose Island Clybourn Brewpub
Vegetarians need not feel excluded, Jon Dubois from Green Zebra will be there preparing a signature vegetarian dish. To top it off, Amy Kelsch, from La Boulangerie will feature a dessert. (Money has it that it will include bacon of some sort).
General Admission tickets are $60 (through June 8; after that date tickets will be available at the door) and Terra Madre tickets are $80 (includes ticket + $20 donation to send a delegate to Terra Madre). All proceeds benefit Slow Food Chicago, a not-for-profit organization.
