Taste of Randolph Street Festival - June 20 to June 22, 2008

By Jennifer Roche, About.com

Overview of Randolph Street Festival:

It just wasn't that long ago that west Randolph Street featured mainly a bunch of run-down warehouses. Then, Oprah moved Harpo Studios to the neighborhood and a string of restaurants burst onto the scene, bringing a new level of vibrancy to the formerly ignored stretch of Randolph.

Every June, this food and music festival celebrates Randolph Street's culinary corridor. This year the festival introduces cooking demonstrations on Saturday and Sunday.

When:

Friday, June 20 from 5pm to 11pm
Saturday, June 21 from 2pm to 11pm
Sunday, June 22 from 2pm to 10pm

Where:

On Randolph Street, West of Peoria Street (which is just west of Halsted and I-90/94) and East of Racine.
