Ever wonder what munching on Fried Grasshoppers tastes like? How about having water Jelly for dessert? How about savoring Split Duck Face all the while watching Taiko drummers, Lao and Samoan dancers? These are just a few of the dynamic plates and dance troupes that will be offered at Strange Foods Festival 2. The festival will be held at the beautiful Stan Mansion. Last year's fest attracted 500 people sampling strange dishes from Chicago's local restaurants. Featured items were steamed brain in banana leaves, sticky rice stuffed then grilled in a bamboo stalk for dessert, black corn fungus and eyeball tacos, bulls testicles and many more. The title Strange Foods may get guests to look the other way but when in actuality the term strange only applies to those that aren't accustom to it. What is strange in America, may actually be a delicacy in other nations. The Festival will educate people on dishes that may look unfamiliar with unusual ingredients but can be very tasty if executed right. Last years

"A goofy nerd with elegant style and confidence… is that a real thing? Don’t let the jokes and laughter distract you, one minute talking with Grant McNamara about fashion and style is all it takes to see how passionate and talented he is. As one of Chicago’s top stylist for both men and women, he doesn’t see any client as a challenge, just an opportunity to have fun. Now, Grant is beginning to design his own line, G ALXNDR. Not having any formal background in fashion, he went from the consulting and corporate world to being named one of Chicago’s most stylish men in just a couple years. What does he attribute it to? His Ma making him iron his clothes when he was younger. That, caring, and telling his personal story through style and living happy. It might help that he won a nationwide model search contest and has been seen in numerous publications and videos, including a cover of Chicago Style Weddings magazine, the face of LYFE Kitchen ads, and the face of a local custom clothing company."

John Manion’s star is a rising in Chicago. Despite the fact that he’s been a Chicago-area chef for nearly two decades, the last few years have put him on the culinary map. When Manion was just eight years old, his family was transplanted to sprawling São Paulo, Brazil, introducing him to a whole new world of food at a young age, inspiring his culinary trajectory. His first restaurant, La Sirena Clandestina, is Brazilian-inspired—what Manion envisioned as a sort of mysterious, hidden spot you might stumble upon in coastal Brazil. Translated as “The Hidden Mermaid,” La Sirena Clandestina serves simple, beachy Brazilian classics like Pao de Queijo, Moqueca, and Caipirinhas. Now, Manion has opened a second South America-inspired restaurant, El Che Bar, a nod to his travels throughout Argentina.
