Now, all you have to do is save up for the train fare, hotel, and entrance tickets to witness this once-in-a-lifetime experience that opens May 1st! 

Back to today: Join us for our next Dining Experience, set in the time and place of the magical, temporary glittering city on the lake that looks like the ocean. We will take you back in time through food and storytelling to 1893, when Chicago brought the world to its doorstep, creating an unimaginable vista and leaving behind fantastic stories and memories. We will capture the sights, sounds, and foods through food and storytelling. 

Our Dining Experiences consist of 12-16 small plates over a 3-hour dinner. We can accommodate most allergies and dietary restrictions, if we are notified in advance. Your ticket includes at least one cocktail (or mocktail), customized to the theme of the night. 

We realize this is advance notice but we want to give folks the chance to reserve a spot, since we are sure to sell out each night. There is limited seating.
