    "Chico": MLB's 1st Latino All-Star

    On this episode we revisit the story of Chico, the first Latino All-Star. Celebrate 75 years of history.  Show notes here!  Join us.... Summer Dinner @ Hermosa Hosted at Hermosa, this special fundraising dinner will feature a collaborative seasonal menu created by Chef Sarah Stegner and Chef Ethan Lim, two chefs whose commitment to thoughtful, ingredient-driven cooking has helped shape Chicago’s culinary landscape. Drawing inspiration directly from the farms of Green City Market, the evening’s menu will showcase the peak flavors of the season through a series of dishes that highlight the region’s farmers. Guests will enjoy a unique dining experience that reflects the creativity of both chefs while supporting the continued work of 77 Flavors of Chicago. Proceeds from the dinner will help fund 77 Flavors’ mission of documenting, preserving, and sharing the stories, people, and places that make Chicago one of the world’s great food cities. Come hungry, connect with fellow food lovers, and celebrate the rich agricultural and culinary traditions that make our region so special. This dinner is BYOB.

    Meet Me at the Midway [Plaisance]

    The last few weeks we spent time diving into the fantasy that was the World’s Columbian Exposition. This has always been an event that I would do anything to go back in time to attend. In reality, if I existed as myself all the way back in 1893, there’s no way I would’ve attended the Fair. At best, I would’ve been on display at the Midway.
