Chef Graham Elliot Bowles headlines at his namesake River North restaurant most nights of the week.
Now, he's been asked to take his show on the road for a few days at Lollapalooza. More specifically, he'll be cooking for show's headliner, Jane's Addiction.
On the menu, what Bowles described as a "heartland picnic." We think he'll be cooking with his pants on, unlike his You Tube performance we featured last month.
Even if you're not a member of the band -- or if you've had a hard time getting a reservation at his restaurant -- you can still enjoy some of his signature dishes at Lollapalooza (in case you've lived under a rock, it's in Grant Park August 7-9). Watch your favorite band's tunes with a little Parmesan/truffle popcorn or one of his lobster corn dogs with lemon aoli.
Thanks to Bowles, eating food on a stick can be chic.
Two last plugs: We'd be remiss in not mentioning Bowles role in the finals of "Top Chef Masters" on Bravo (owned by NBC) and Lollapalooza winning NBCChicago.com's Golden Local Debate over Pitchfork.
Shameless, we know.
