Last week I headed to the Intercontinental on Michigan Avenue for the
Taste of Streeterville, an annual foodie event in Chicago. The event benefitting the
Streeterville Chamber of Commerce featured Chicago's finest menu items from 16 Streeterville restaurants. Each restaurant had its own booth with their head chef presenting a variety of menu items. There was even a hosted bar by Goose Island and Terrazas wines!

The BF and I had a great time bouncing from table to table eating up each restaurant's offerings. There were even a few restaurants I had never heard of including Cape Cod and Viand Bar and Kitchen. It was a great way to meet the local chefs and restaurateurs and it didn't hurt that it was all you can eat! My favorite items were fish tacos from
Viand Bar and Kitchen, and breadsticks from
Michael Jordan's Steak House. There were quite a few steakhouses represented, so I would have liked a bit more variety of food offerings (where was the dessert?!) but it was a convenient way to find out about the area's restaurants. Check out a full list of this year's participating restaurants after the jump!
