AT The Ribshack Chicago

Come chill at the beach at one of my favorite events of the summer. The Bud Billikin parade is in the morning so make that quick ride to Oakwood Beach and have a time. Supposed to beautiful weather so brring a chair and an appetite as I will be selling chili cheese fried, loaded fries and a vegas option with sautéed garlic mushroom and onion topped with vegan cheese and a coconut garlic cream sauce. We will also have a secret menu. So please ask. It could be fresh hand breaded catfish or shrimp or onion ring. None of that frozen stuff. We at Sandbox Symphony would love all of your support to an amazing time at the beach.

A couple of pics of our booth from yesterday's event. The weather wasn't nice but we always get great feedback on our food. Everyone loved our new menu item, New Orleans Style Grilled Shrimp

We are ecstatic to announce that have restarted our BBQ business. It has been a long hard road. A lot of literal blood, sweat and tears, and here we are.

As some of you have noticed our business pages have changed on Facebook and Instagram

Our first event is, The Taste of Grace in South Holland. Saturday the 26th from 1pm to 6. 16100 Seton Road. There will be fun for all, with a car show as well. So come out out and support. Hope to see you all there.

Are fire flying making a comeback? In a Southside neighborhood I just seen the most I've seen in years
