Green City Market Chef's BBQ Benefit 2011
Green City Market Chef's BBQ Benefit will be held in Lincoln Park on Thursday, July 21, 2011, from 5:30pm-8:00pm. Rain or Shine. No dogs allowed.
One of the best summer events in Chicago, this grand picnic is held every July in picturesque Lincoln Park, with the fabulous Chicago skyline as a backdrop. This beautiful venue is ideal to showcase some of Chicago's finest chefs, the who's who of Chicago's culinary scene. All dishes served at the BBQ feature items offered from the bounty of the market with nearly 100 chefs/restaurants creating culinary magic. In addition to food, locally made beer, wine, hand-crafted cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages will be available.
Tickets are available on brownpapertickets.com starting on May 4th and at the actual market on Wednesdays and Saturdays (at the Information Booth). Tickets will not be available at the BBQ!
Don't miss out on one of Chicago's most unique and tastiest events of the year. It doesn't get better than great food, drink, music, and the beauty of Lincoln Park on a summer evening in Chicago.

Together we can make a difference in the local, Chicago food system by providing information and education on how to eat better and live a healthier lifestyle.

| Question: |
where is the best place for parking? |
| Answer: |
The Chicago History Museum parking lot is your best bet. Entrance off of Stockton near LaSalle. The lot DOES fill up, so I'd recommend getting there early. Better yet - public transportation! |
