Chicago Gourmet 2014 Kicks Off with Hamburger Hop

Chicago Gourmet is an event that highlights the talent of top Chicago chefs from the best local restaurants in town. As per tradition, the event will kickstart with the famous Hamburger Hop, where Chicago chefs will showcase their unique burger creations. Guests will get to taste the burgers, along with beer, wine, and other booze. A panel of judges will determine the Best Burger Award, while attendees will choose the burger that wins the People’s Choice Award. The Hop takes place on Friday, September 26th at 6 p.m. at the Harris Theater Rooftop (205 E Randolph St). No party is complete, of course, without an after-party, which is why the festivities continue with Late Night Gourmet at 9 p.m. at The Underground (56 W Illinois St). Tickets for the Hamburger Hop are $115, while Late Night Gourmet tickets cost $50 each. Buy both together for $150. Tickets are available here. Chicago Gourmet lasts all weekend – from Sept. 26th to the 28th.
