"A Gold Coast restaurant at 1160 N. Dearborn is hosting a Hurricane Helene benefit organized by Chicago Chefs Cook and led by chef Art Smith; scheduled for 5 p.m. on Sunday, October 6, the fundraiser will feature small bites and an open bar, and Chicago’s culinary community — including Prairie Grass Cafe chef Sarah Stegner and Fred Latsko, Smith’s partner at the venue — has stepped up to help. Smith has also enlisted a local hot‑dog institution to create a chicken‑fried dog on a biscuit for the event; tickets are available online and donations are being directed to World Central Kitchen’s relief efforts." - Ashok Selvam
