What's Happening!! Returns to Logan Square
Last year Longman and Eagle said goodbye to summer by throwing a block party, What's Happening!!, deejayed by Windy City Soul Club. It was a "thank you" to the community, filling Logan Square's air with hipster bait: soul music and the aroma of roasted pig.
This year "What's Happening" is, uh, happening again. The Michelin-starred restaurant is joining forces with Old Style and Windy City Soul Club to throw another free, outdoor event with beer, tasty grub and groovy tunes from 4 to 10pm on Sunday, Sept. 23 on Schubert and Kedzie avenues, adjacent to the restaurant.
This year chef Jared Wentworth (who will be the chef at the just-announced Promontory, L&E's new Hyde Park restaurant, bar and concert venue) has created a menu that includes corn pudding, wild boar sloppy and venison sausage with sauerkraut, and a pig plate with lots of barbecue fixings. Where's there's pork, there's bound to be party people.
