Summer is all about days spent outside, al fresco dining and warm dreamlike evenings. Combining all the best the season has to offer, the Fairmont Chicago, Millennium Park hotel will be reviving their Chef in the Park program, an ultra-luxurious picnic event that caters to guests attending outdoor concerts in Millennium Park.
Personally prepared for each guest, the service includes a pre-dining consultation with someone from Fairmont's executive culinary team and a special event manager to develop a menu based on individual dining preferences. Before the concert starts the chef will fix and serve each dish, sharing culinary insight about every course. Diners can choose from a variety of items from antipasti to sushi, and indulge in a generous selection of libations—this is an outdoor concert after all.
While anyone can enjoy summer salad and wine in the park, the service is perfect for couples who are celebrating a special occasion or for lovers looking to pop the question in a casual, but intimate environment. The experience starts at $600 for two guests and includes parking at the hotel and dinner service.
