Anthony Bourdain Plans July 30 Tour Stop in Chicago

Anthony Bourdain's always held some serious love for Chicago, and it makes sense the city is one of 10 stops Bourdain will make as part of his "Close to the Bone" tour. He'll share stories about food and other topics on Thursday, July 30 at the Auditorium Theater. A ticket presale is happening now, while general sales begin at 10 a.m. on Friday.

Bourdain, the celebrity chef, author and TV host, has visited Chicago for his TV shows. He toured through the city, eating at places including Hot Doug's, L20 and Moto on "No Reservations." He also spent 48 hours in Chicago on "The Layover With Anthony Bourdain," eating at Longman & Eagle, The Publican and getting a Chicago history lesson at the Old Town Ale House.
