After helping at-risk youth in the U.K., Jamie Oliver's skills are now wanted in Chicago. A group of Uptown citizens has started the Uptown Needs Jamie Oliver page on Facebook to try to attract the celeb chef to the North Side nabe. This "task force" hopes Oliver can help train local youth in the culinary arts to try to steer them away from joining gangs. The group currently has 468 likes. [Uptown Update]
