9th Annual Logan Square Chefs Dinner

On November 14th, Jason Hammel of Lula Café will host the ninth annual Logan Square Chef's Dinner to benefit Comfort Station, a multidisciplinary arts space that provides free cultural programming for the surrounding community. Since 2010, Comfort Station has held monthly art exhibitions, weekly films and concerts, potlucks, workshops, and lectures, each year further establishing itself as a micro-cultural center in the heart of Logan Square. Much of Comfort Station's operating and programming expenses are covered through donations and sponsorships from local patrons and businesses, with this annual dinner remaining a significant source of funding that the organization receives each year. Due to pandemic shutdowns, this will be the return of this event since 2020 and a chance to celebrate the resiliency of arts communities and the service industry!

Hammel will be joined by some of the neighborhood's most exciting chefs: Diana Davila (Mi Tocaya), Joe Frillman (Daisies), Ethan Pikas (Cellar Door Provisions), Ryan Pfeiffer (Big Kids), Zeeshan Shah and Yoshi Yamada (Superkhana International), with cocktails from Matthias Merges (Billy Sunday) and beer from Middlebrow. This dream team of local epicurean talent will collaborate on a six-course feast, bringing expertise and special touches from their respective restaurants. Since Lula Cafe opened in 1999, Logan Square has become a culinary destination in Chicago, and the annual Chef's Dinner reflects the broad array of talent that is located blocks from one another.

Dinner starts at 6 p.m. with cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. The cost is $200 per person with all food, drinks, tax and tip included. Tickets can be purchased here. Buy yours soon! This delicious and celebratory neighborhood event is certain to sell out!
