Come visit Lou Malnati's at the 30th Annual Taste of Chicago Festival in Grant Park starting today and running through July 4.  Lou’s will again offer its authentic Chicago-style deep-dish pizza hot and fresh, in addition to Malnati salad and bruschetta.  As one of the few vendors that actually make the product from scratch at the festival, the production alone is worth seeing.  Each pizza is handmade at the Taste, and loaded into one of the 24 pizza ovens set up in Lou Malnati's custom-designed tent located at Booth 32.  Last year, visitors to the festival ate more than 60,000 slices of Lou Malnati’s famous sausage and cheese pizzas.  Come join the fun.  We hope to see you there!!

In other fun news this weekend, Lou’s will be serving our famous pizza and other Chicago favorites at the Crossroads tour at Toyota Park.  Today we will serve the artists as they rehearse for the concert, and tomorrow we will serve guests in the American Express tent.

Congratulations to the Chicago Blackhawks for winning the Stanley Cup!  The team provided Chicago fans an exciting ride all season, and now they have been generously sharing “The Cup” with fans as they celebrate throughout the city.  Hey, Blackhawks, you’re welcome at Lou’s anytime!

How close have you been to the Stanley Cup?  Everywhere I go people are telling me who they know that touched it at this restaurant, or drank from it at that bar.  How many degrees of separation are you from the Cup?
