Alice Waters in Chicago!
Alice Waters hits Green City Market later this month.
Trailblazing chef-tress Alice Waters makes an appearance at Green City Market to sign copies of The Edible Schoolyard. This is one not to be missed as Waters' influence on the organic movement gets props for turning chefs as well as children onto healthier cuisine. That event is free and happens 10:30-11:30am Saturday, April 25 in the eco-parking lot at the Peggy Notebaert Nature Museum (2430 N. Cannon Dr.).
Also coming up:
Drinking wine out of a paper bag?! Really? That's what's up over at BIN 36, where guests will get to sample a number of signature vino and vittles. To add a little edge to this blind-tasting party, Wine Director Brian Duncan's serving the wine in brown paper bags to test guests' skills. 6-8pm April 22. $25.
