Join us on Sunday, March 29th from 4 to 8pm, as we travel around Rogers Park and experience some of the good food that this diverse community has to offer. The Dinner Crawl, a fundraiser for DevCorp North, introduces you to the wide range of delicious food available in the Rogers Park neighborhood.
Rogers Park is proud to be the home of many ethnic groups; our residents benefit by having access to cuisine from all over the world. This is your chance to travel around the world in one evening by sampling a variety of ethnic foods. A World of Taste will introduce participants to 16 restaurants in Rogers Park. Each participant will be given a "passport" containing a brief description of each dish they will be sampling along with a map of the restaurants. Vans will be circulating around four stops, picking up passengers and shuttling them to their next location. At each stop passengers will walk short distances to each restaurant. Once each restaurant has been visited, participants wait for a van to take them to their next location. Join us and experience Rogers Park, A World of Taste.
Participating restaurants include:
African Harambee
Caribbean American Bakery
Charmers Cafe
Common Cup
Grande Noodle
Heartland Cafe
Hop Haus
Los Portales
Luzzat
Morseland
Masouleh
Sahara Kabob
Taste Food & Wine
Notes: You must come to DevCorp North's offices before you start the Dinner Crawl to pick up your "passport" and map. Once you have signed in and received your materials, you may begin the Dinner Crawl. Vans will continuously drive the route allowing you to complete the Dinner Crawl at your own pace.
