Two of the biggest celeb-chef heavyweight in Chicago, Paul Kahan and Stephanie Izard, will deliver a sophomore edition of their Fulton Market Harvest Fest after last year's successful inaugural run. The restaurant lineup is a pretty enviable one for Round Two, as is the All-Star roster of chefs at the demo stage.

You'll be able to sample food from the acclaimed likes of Cemitas Puebla, neighborhood newcomer Kuma's Corner, bellyQ, Glazed and Infused and Bar Sienna, among others. Kahan's own Publican and Publican Quality Meats and Izard's Girl & the Goat and Little Goat Diner will be represented, too, of course.

As for the demos, Chris Cosentino (Top Chef Masters), The Publican alum Cosmo Goss (the new Underscore Hospitality), Bill Kim (bellyQ), James Beard winner Sarah Grueneberg (Monteverde) and Rick Bayless are all scheduled to participate. Not bad. A music lineup is still to-be-announced.

The weekend food fest runs from Saturday, Sept. 30 through Sunday, Oct. 1. Tickets are $30 (includes $20 in food-and-beverage tickets) and can be purchased here.
