Yesterday, H and I took a little day trip to Chicago to go to the beach (pre-rain) and Taste of Chicago (during the torrential downpour).
We met up with some friends just before 2:00 and almost immediately it started to pour. Six of us huddled under 2 umbrellas, but we still go soaked. When the rain finally let up, I went on the search for vegan food. I read something about Karyn’s on Green being at Taste. Unfortunately, I did not pay attention to the details, because it is one of the pop up restaurants and it is only there on Sunday (so if you are in Chicago today, go check them out!). The Nile was one of yesterday’s pop up restaurants and they served a vegan falafel sandwich. It was good, but it does not compare to Expressly Leslie. I also found butter-free corn on the cob from Abbey Pub and orange Italian ice from Tutto Italiano.
