Event Details
Mark your calendar: Eataly Chicago is celebrating Truffle Day on Sunday, November 18!
In time for the holidays, you can bring home a fresh white truffle from Italy at the lowest prices of the season — and take part in our first-ever truffle auction!
TRUFFLE AUCTION
Yes, you read that right! We've hosted meat and seafood auctions over the past couple years, and you loved each one of them. Why not truffles, too? Join us at 5 p.m. on Sunday, November 18, for our first-ever truffle auction with Urbani Truffles featuring fresh, Italian white truffles, truffle accessories, experiences in our truffle restaurant, Il Tartufo, and more. See you there!
Why is this exciting? In Italy and across the world, white truffles are considered culinary gold (yes, we're talking about those small, funky smelling, bumpy tubers). First, they're incredibly rare, only in season for a few months in Alba in northern Piemonte, where they typically grow among oak, hazel, poplar, and beech trees. And the taste? Please. The prized ingredient boasts earthy aromas and notes of shallot that are unforgettable.
Are you already plotting your holiday feast? Fresh truffles are best shaved over a simple but quality dish, such as bruschetta, risotto, pasta, and much more. In other words: move over, pork roast. We have a new maestro of the meal.
Can't make it? We'll host a second Truffle Day in December; check back for the date.
Happy Truffle Day!
