Feast on an unconventional dinner by two Chicago culinary icons, a contrast in stories and concepts. Both with cuisines abundant in soul, substance and intrepid flavor. 21 year restaurateur Rohini Dey, Ph.D. is the founder of Vermilion restaurant, Let's Talk Womxn, and the James Beard Foundation women's leadership program after a career in academia, the World Bank & McKinsey. Her unique Indian-Latin and Indian-Chinese fare is lauded "Best Restaurants" by Travel & Leisure, Town & Country, Esquire, Wine Enthusiast, Chicago and 3 Stars Chicago Tribune. Native Chicagoan Taylor Mason created Taylor's Tacos in 2018 after falling in love with southern California street tacos. Her catering company evolved into Taylor's Tacos retail in 2023, already a must visit destination by Eater, Infatuation, Tribune and Sun Times. Feast on Taylor's "sexy crispy shrimp taco" which won BEST TACO on Good Morning America. Experience Vermilion's legendary #1 DISH WORLDWIDE by USA Today - the lobster portuguese - alongside amazing five courses with a curated cocktail & wine pairing. Vegan fare and zero-proof cocktail options is available for all courses. Your Let's Talk Womxn hosts include Mmmm Wines founder Molly Matelski, who will share her journey crafting premium Italian wines. Let's Talk Womxn is proud to curate this three-way collaborative dinner experience exclusively with the Restaurant Show.
