For those who want to get up-close-and-personal with Rick Bayless and cannot attend Chicago Gourmet, a friend just sent me an article from the "Chicago Reader" on a Frontera Fiesta and Garden Tour. The event takes place on Saturday, September 26th, from 11:30a-2:30p and includes a guided tour through Rick Bayless' three-lot urban organic garden from which he sources some of the produce used on the menu at his restaurants. The tour is followed by a private three-course meal at Frontera. The price tag is $85.
Email aiwf-chicago@sbcglobal.net or call 312-661-1434 for more information on the Frontera Fiesta.
Also, catch Top Chef's Stephanie Izard at Moonshine's Rib-A-Que Smoke-out on Saturday, written about in a previous blog from this week, or check out a Fall favorite at St Alphonsus Church - Oktoberfest! Oktoberfest is happening all weekend and features a little German music, food and beer, along with a lot of the typical street fest fare. It's fun all the same. Hours are as follows:
Sept 25: 5p-10p
Sept 26: 12p - 10p
Sept 27:12p-6:30pSuggested donation is $5. St Alphonsus is located at 3000 N Lincoln Ave at Lincoln and Southport Avenues.
