Greetings Eaters!
We have a special treat for you folks this week! Jeremy and Jason decided to abscond off to Belgium, leaving me all by my lonesome to attempt to cook for y’all. But instead of wallow in trying to do this all by myself, I decided to do the logical thing. I brought in the big guns, the PROFESSIONALS. That’s right, I was able to bring in none other than Travis, who is a professional chef by trade, and his delightful partner Alisha, who also used to be a professional food & beverage person, to compose the menu for this week and let me tell you, it’s a banger! Ya’ ever been down to Taylor Street in Chicago? They call it “Little Italy” for a reason and this is gonna an ode to that area that is near and dear to my heart. I’m not sure if Travis and Alisha even knew that I lived on or near Taylor St. for ~4-7 years of my life, but I’m already drooling over this menu. Enough waffling, on to the details!
Deets!
When: This Wednesday, July 31st. Cooking/arrivals at 6:30, food should begin to roll out by 7:30-ish.
