CHICAGO — If you didn't grab a table during Restaurant Week, fear not: There's still one more chance to get a lower-priced gourmet meal in the city.
The fourth annual Chicago Chef Week kicks off Sunday and runs through March 22.
Eighty restaurants across Chicago will offer three-course lunches and dinners for $22 and $44, respectively, highlighting some of their signature dishes. Participation depends on each restaurant's hours of operation.
Drinks, taxes and tip aren't included, so bring a few extra bucks to try cocktails such as Sepia's Boulevardier, a concoction of Old Granddad bonded bourbon, Campari and Punt e Mes.
Check out the full list of participating restaurants, and make reservations at the Chef Week website:
