It’s a great week for food in Chicago with Restaurant Week 2024 starting Friday. Hundreds of restaurants across the city will feature special tasting menus, giving Chicagoans the chance to try new spots and dishes. It’s also a great time to try foods that were created here in Chicago that you may have not tried yet. Last year, host Jacoby Cochran sat down with Monica Eng and David Hammond, authors of "Made in Chicago: Stories Behind 30 Great Hometown Bites" to talk about favorite Chicago foods, their origin stories, and places you can try them out.
