From throwback hip hop to dining Wisconsin style, here are the haute happenings around Chicago that are currently on our radar.
The Allium Society Launches this Thursday
There’s an exclusive new dinner club in town, and we wish we could tell you how to score an invite. The Four Seasons’ Allium Society — an invite-only quarterly event — kicks off its first installation this Thursday, August 18. The gist of the evenings goes like this: Invitees and their plus ones get just a few details and instructions about the night’s events (this week’s: simply “wear white”), and meet inside the Allium at the Four Seasons. From their, the fun begins, and guests are escorted to an undisclosed location.
