Cena Con Amici ("Dinner with friends"): Tartufo Bianco
Join us for a special Cena con Amici pop-up dinner featuring tartufo bianco, better known as the white truffle. Rare and enigmatic, the highly prized and sought after white truffle from Alba in Northern Italy is an ephemeral delicacy; their exact locations a highly guarded secret by the truffle hunters that harvest them under cover of night and only in season for a very short time. Tartufi bianchi are truly unique and intoxicating; delicate, floral, highly aromatic, and indescribably delicious. Like the Piemontese truffle hunters, we will be keeping the location and menu of this special white truffle pop-up dinner a closely guarded secret until the last moment. You don't want to miss this opportunity to experience this fleeting, extraordinary culinary treasure, intricately woven through five delicious courses by Executive chef, Dawn Wilson.
One night only, $100/person, secret menu, secret location revealed to attendees 24 hours in advance
Wine pairing flight may be added for an additional $15/person. BYO is allowed with a cash only $15/bottle corkage fee.

Chef Dawn Wilson
As the owner and driving force behind A NEW DAWN personal chef service since 2006, Executive Chef Dawn Wilson has provided catering, personal chef services, and cooking instruction to clients in Chicago and the surrounding suburbs to rave reviews. Formerly a Research Scientist with Biology and Molecular Genetics degrees from Loyola University and University of Chicago, Dawn's passion for cooking and entertaining led her away from the lab and into the kitchen. She developed her culinary style while working at Bin 36, Cafe Las Bellas Artes, and several catering companies in Chicagoland. As the Culinary Director for Whole Foods Market-Northbrook, she taught cooking classes and launched the private event program. Chef Dawn helped introduce and execute the fresh hand-made pasta program for the opening of Balena, the italian-inspired concept from Boka Restaurant Group and B. Hospitality Co.
In 2011, Dawn moved to the small Tuscan town of Colle Val d'Elsa where she worked at the rustic Slowfood restaurant, Officina della Cucina Popolare, learning the secrets of Tuscan cuisine. Following her stage at Officina, she traveled and tasted her way throughout Italy with stops in many regions including Emilia-Romagna, Umbria, Veneto, Piedmont, and Lazio.
