The Egyptians developed it, food loving people everywhere embraced it, and then in 2005, Chicago outlawed it: foie gras. Mark Caro, veteran Chicago Tribune writer, spent time on all sides of the debate, and the facts, he admits, "give me pause" although "not enough to put down my fork". Join us for a lively discussion about appetite, ethics and the intersection of the two, when we talk with Caro about his latest book, The Foie Gras Wars: How a 5,000 Year-Old-Delicacy Inspired the World's Fiercest Food Fight.
Note: Ticket price includes wine, appetizers, and a copy of the book, which you can have signed by the author.
Parking is available in the Whole Foods parking garage (beneath the hotel). After 6pm, parking for the evening is $5.
