ROSCOE VILLAGE — Wine and cheese parties are one thing but wine and Cheez-Its?

For anyone who's ever wondered what to serve with nachos and gummi bears — besides the obvious pitcher of beer or two-liter of Mountain Dew — Volo, 2008 W. Roscoe St., tackles the conundrum head on at its annual Junk Food & Wine Pairing event, 3-5 p.m., Saturday.

The restaurant will be serving housemade versions of foods like onion rings, buffalo wings and jalapeño poppers — so, already more elegant than your average bag of Flamin' Hot Cheetos — and classing them up with boutique wines.

Tickets are $36 per person and can be purchased online.

Those who attend the tasting and opt to stick around for dinner will receive a 20 percent discount off food.
