Virtual Tour | Chicago’s Lost Restaurants

Tuesday, April 13

Discover Chicago’s culinary history from the best seat in the house.

Beginning in 1835 when the first fine dining restaurant was established, Chicago has been a popular dining destination that has seen its fair share of eateries come and go. Food has been served at establishments run by just about everyone—world-renowned chefs, mob bosses, immigrants, migrants, and even a Soul Queen.

Make your reservation and join author Greg Borzo on a virtual tour of Chicago’s lost restaurants.

$5; Free for members 

Tour runs about 1 hour; Zoom link provided after registration
