Taste of Chicago Highlights - Day 6

You know how people always complain that it's too hot to go to the Taste? Well, not today! It's a cool mid-60s, so head on down to Grant Park and enjoy the fun!

Cooking Corner

Today's featured chefs include Sherman Scott from Harvest Grill and Robert and Allison Levitt of Mado. Lisa Williams of Lisa Cooks Allergen Free and Michael Niksic, The Food Mercenary, also demonstrate their talents.

Family Village & Fun Time Stage

Two words: Giant Twister

Taste Sports! Pavilion

The Chicago Blackhawks generated quite a bit of excitement this last season. Meet them face to face today from Noon to 1pm. Then you can meet Olympians & Paralympians. From 2 to 6pm World Sport Chicago will be at the pavilion. This organization encourages Chicagoland kids to go for the gold. 

The Music

Ne-Yo's in the house! Or the Petrillo Music Shell. OK, I should just not try to be cool. Anyway, he's headlining tonight after Keri Hilson opens. The Illinois Lottery Taste Stage is featuring tribute bands, so if you ever wanted to see U2, The Eagles, Luther Vandross, the Rolling Stones, or Crosby Stills Nash & Young, now's your chance. Sort of.
