Cattle Drive to Chicago Dinner at the Roadhouse
Wednesday, July 31, 7pm (tomorrow!)
Cattle drives were a major part of the American west, particularly between 1866 and 1886 when over 20 million cattle were herded from Texas to railheads in Kansas for shipments and then to Stockyards in Chicago and points further east. Through these cattle drives, the cowboy became an iconic figure of the American west. Chef Alex is exploring the path of the cattle drive, celebrating BBQ and other foods found from Texas to Chicago.

Renowned artist and olive oil producer Michael Zyw visits the Zingerman’s Events on 4th on Tuesday, August 6, 6:30 pm. to share his knowledge of art, the food of Tuscany, and making terrific olive oil.
Michael’s Poggio Lamentano was a pioneer; it was already winning acclaim back in the early ’60s, an era when extra virgin olive was just a gleam in the eye of most of the world’s gourmets. The food writers of that era, crafting their views on the aesthetics of great food long before there was a food network or Facebook, fell in love with it. Elizabeth David called it, “one of the supreme pleasures of my life.” MFK Fisher was a big fan as well: “Excellent in every way and exactly to my taste.” The oil is classically Tuscan—peppery, green, big, beautiful, delicious.
Crafting a world-class oil is a huge achievement. But, working with the olive trees is Michael Zyw’s morning work. In the afternoon’s he’s an artist whose work on canvas and with glass is as exceptional as his oil. Michael’s art, as was that of his father (Alexander Zyw), been praised throughout the art world.
Please join us for this rare appearance!
