Taste of Chicago Highlights - The Final Day

It's the last day of Taste of Chicago, and I must say I'll be a little sad to see it go. It's been fun posting each day's schedule and highlights and I hope it's been helpful!

Cooking Corner

Today's demonstrations include Green Spirit Living (noon), which features raw foods. After that you won't feel so guilty when Lori's Cakewalk (1pm) takes the stage. Two chefs from Chicago's prestigious Drake Hotel,  and Chef Hector Marcial will also strut their stuff.

Family Village & Fun Time Stage

Yesterday the talent from previous years was on the Fun Time Stage; today is this year's Taste of Talent contest for kids ages 4 to 14 (11:30am). Even if your children didn't enter the contest they may have a chance on stage with Be A Karaoke Star (3pm)

Taste Sports! Pavilion

The Music

If you head near the Illinois Lottery Taste Stage get ready to move, 'cause it's Gospel & Jazz Sunday. The Best Buy Stage features a bunch of Chicago bands, including TLT favorite Lucid Ground (I'll be there shooting pictures of the guys, so say hello). Unless you're a tween-age or teenage girl - or the parent of one - you might want to stay away from Petrillo Music Shell. Mitchel Musso of Hannah Montana fame will be performing.
