Those of you pissed because of how hard it is to get a primo reso at Art Smith's glorious, down-home haunt Table Fifty-Two will be happy to know he's expanding into the space next door sometime this spring or summer. Hopefully, that'll make getting in easier!
In the meantime, we've come across something even cooler: a free lunch with Chicago's top adopted toque himself, hosted by NBCChicago.com on April 27.
Getting in is surprisingly simple. All you have to do is sign onto NBCChicago.com and answer a series of locally focused questions. Then you just might be one of the lucky 160 winners of the "golden lunch ticket" to enjoy what's certain to be a marvelous meal featuring Smith's signature dishes.
Winners will be notified of the secret location on the day of the event.
