Eater Chicago was on the scene at TimesTalks Chicago Chefs Live! with Frank Bruni, Rick Bayless, Art Smith, Charlie Trotter, and SoBe Wine & Food Festival head honcho Lee Schrager. Everyone wanted to avoid talking about Michelin; Schrager hinted that a Chicago Food & Wine Festival is in the works. Art Smith said about chefs being on TV: "If you have the opportunity and charisma to do it ... do it. If you have something to direct the media toward, it'll be good for business." [-ECHI-]
