LINCOLN PARK — Tickets for Intro, the upcoming revolving restaurant concept that is replacing L20, went on sale this week.

The Lettuce Entertain You Enterprises restaurant will feature former "Top Chef" contestant C.J. Jacobson in its first go-around.

The restaurant, which opens Feb. 4, will include a "chef-in-residence" program for chefs to work with Rich Melman, the founder of the restaurant group, and create a concept that reflects their personal style.

Tickets are available through a new online ticketing system in which diners pay up front and can be bought at introchicagotickets.com.

Tickets range from $65 on weekdays (5:30 p.m.) to $95 during peak hours (6:30-8:30 p.m.) on Friday and Saturday nights for the five-course menu before tax, tip and wine pairing.

The goal is to showcase up-and-coming culinary talents from across the country to Chicago.

The chefs will remain at Intro for two to three months at a time at the restaurant, 2300 N. Lincoln Park West.
