Taste Talks is a national series of festivals celebrating the future of taste through symposia, awards, tastings, dinners and parties. We bring together amazing chefs, restaurants and cultural figures together with everyday food enthusiasts to engage in great conversation, awesome food and one-of-a-kind experiences over 3 days.
"Taste Talks is bringing together some of the world’s top luminaries in food and drink - from writers and critics to chefs, bakers and brew masters - to discuss, analyze, and theorize about the future of taste."
- Chicago Food Magazine
"A national food festival centered around bringing together local chefs, restaurateurs, and food enthusiasts hosts an impressive slew of speakers from Brooklyn-based places." - Thrillist
"Chicago's very best chefs descend on Taste Talks." - Time Out
Thanks to all the chefs and participants in this year's festival!
