We probably don’t need to introduce Chef Rick Bayless to you, but just in case, here we go. He’s the winner of seven James Beard Awards including Midwest Chef of the Year, National Chef of the Year, Humanitarian of the Year, Who’s Who of American Food and Drink, Best Podcast, and two for his cookbooks. He’s been bestowed the Mexican Order of the Aztec Eagle–the highest decoration bestowed on foreigners whose work has benefitted Mexico and its people-from The Government of Mexico. He’s won the Julia Child Foundation Award, given to “an individual who has made a profound and significant impact on the way America cooks, eats and drinks.” Frontera Grill, Chef Rick’s first restaurant, founded in 1987 and recipient of the James Beard Foundation’s highest award, Outstanding Restaurant, makes its way across Chicagoland featuring a menu selected by and prepared by Chef Rick and his team. “Frontera sprang from Rick’s mind, his passion and ability to straddle two cultures and his love of everything that is vivid, bold and spirited. His knack for translating all things Mexican—from language to flavors to music to scholarly research—means he has brought Mexico to us, without giving up one iota of authenticity.” Whether you know him from Bravo’s Top Chef Masters, his highly rated series Mexico–One Plate at a Time, or you’ve yet to experience Chef Rick’s creations, we’re delivering a unique opportunity to enjoy his craft in your own home.
