The 1st Annual Chicago Vendy Awards
After eight years in New York, and events in LA and Philadelphia, the Vendy Awards are coming to Chicago. On October 5th, at Kendall College, we’ll determine the best street food vendor in Chicago while raising money for the Asociación de Vendedores Ambulantes & Slow Food Chicago
The Vendys are:
~ An intense cook-off between the best sidewalks chefs in the city.
~ A festival of respect and gratitude for all vendors and everything they provide us–from your morning coffee (half-and-half, two sugars) to the $2 umbrella when you get caught in the thunderstorm.
~ A fundraiser to support culinary entrepreneurs and the sustainable food movement
Save $5 by purchasing online—Premium & General Admission tickets will be $5 more at the door!
WE EXPECT TO SELL OUT. BUY YOUR TICKET IN ADVANCE!
