We here at Eight Forty-Eight encourage the throngs of people in town for the NATO summit to get out of downtown and into the neighborhoods to see – and taste – what the city has to offer. Tuesday on the show, WBEZ bloggers Louisa Chu and John Schmidt give visitors a culinary and historical tour of the city, and area food vendors and restaurateurs make the case for why their establishment is worth the trek. 

To give your recommendations, call 312.923.9239. We’re also joined by Fatih Yildiz, the Consul General of Turkey, who talks about an upcoming reception with Turkish President Abdullah Gül.
