CHICAGO — A new bestselling book shares the stories behind some of the most beloved Chicago food — and one notorious drink.
Co-authors Monica Eng and David Hammond are journalists who’ve reported on deliciousness for decades. Their debut book, “Made in Chicago: Stories Behind 30 Great Hometown Bites,” digs even deeper.
Full disclosure: Eng was a Tribune journalist for 16 years, and we co-host the “Chewing” podcast together. Hammond has written for the Chicago Tribune, and we’ve known each other for many years from the Chicago food website LTH Forum. I also blurbed their book, which you can find on the back cover of the slim paperback filled with color photos.
