SUMMARY:A Table for All
DESCRIPTION:At I Don’t Know Restaurant & Grill\, we believe food tastes better when it’s shared with love and laughter. Every plate tells a story\, and every story brings us closer together. 💜 \nSometimes we get caught up defending politicians or debating issues—but imagine if we poured that same energy into lifting each other up\, improving our communities\, and embracing the good in one another. That’s the kind of unity we’re serving. \n✨ This week’s special: “Unity Meals” – Order any two entrées and get a free side to share\, because love and understanding start with passing the fries. 🍟 \n👫 Bring a friend.\n👨‍👩‍👧 Bring the family.\n🌎 Bring an open heart. \nBecause here\, it’s not just about eating good food… it’s about building a community where everyone has a seat at the table. \n📅 Join us this weekend and let’s celebrate what truly brings us together:\nGood food. Good people. Good vibes. 💜💛

SUMMARY:Belleville Chili Cook-Off
DESCRIPTION:The Annual Chili Cook-off\, hosted by the Greater Belleville Chamber of Commerce is held in Downtown Belleville\, IL on the second full weekend in October. \n  \nHosted by the Greater Belleville Chamber of Commerce\, the Annual Chili Cook-off has featured the culinary creations of individuals\, local organizations\, and area businesses for more than 39 years! What started with just a few vendors on one block of East Main Street in downtown Belleville has now grown to more than 60 vendors and is one of the largest festivals in Belleville!  Many people attend the Chili Cook-off to enjoy the great chili\, entertainment\, and other festivities\, but most don’t realize that it’s the biggest fundraiser of the year for many non-profit organizations. Over half of the vendors participating at the Chili Cook-off each year are either non-profit organizations or a business raising money for a charity\, including the Greater Belleville Chamber of Commerce. 100% of the money spent at each booth goes to that vendor. In addition\, attendees are invited to vote in the People’s Choice contest for their favorite chili for $1 per vote. 100% of the proceeds are donated to the Community Interfaith Food Pantry in Belleville.
