I recently shared with you the exciting lineup for the Winter 2024 Monday Night Foodball at Frank and Mary’s Tavern in Avondale. This weekly chef pop-up event has been a beacon of creativity and community in the Chicago food scene, offering a platform for emerging talent to showcase their skills and dreams.
The upcoming schedule includes a diverse range of cuisines and flavors, promising a unique experience each week. From the award-winning Polish food of Zapiekanka Queen Justyna Haluch to the Spanish Tavern cuisine of former mfk. chef Jeremy Leven, there is something for everyone to enjoy.
The return of all-Indigenous first foods by Jessica Walks First and her Ketapanen Kitchen on November 25 is a highlight not to be missed. Additionally, Dixie Dank BBQ will make its Foodball debut on December 9, bringing a taste of authentic barbecue to the table.
As we approach the end of the year, familiar faces like Sheal Patel with his Indian-style Dhuaan BBQ Company and Irving Park rooftop pop-up Loud Mouth will grace the Foodball stage once again. These chefs bring their unique culinary perspectives and flavors to the event, creating a memorable dining experience for all.
The Winter 2024 Monday Night Foodball lineup is a testament to the resilience and creativity of the Chicago food community. It provides a space for chefs to experiment, collaborate, and connect with diners in a welcoming and inclusive environment. So mark your calendars, gather your friends, and join us for an unforgettable culinary journey this winter.
