Description:

Join us for an engaging conversation with renowned bakers Ellen King, co-owner and director of baking operations at Hewn Bakery, and Jürgen Krauss, a celebrated participant in the 2021 season of The Great British Bake Off who will be visiting from his home in the UK. The dynamic duo first met when Krauss stopped by Hewn’s Evanston location during a previous visit to Chicago, and they bonded quickly over their shared passion for baking.

They will be in conversation with 14-time Emmy Award-winning broadcast journalist Vince Gerasole, host of CBS Chicago’s weekly entertainment segment CBS2’s Got Your Ticket. Gerasole was named the Best Broadcast Reporter in the state by The Associated Press of Illinois, and his culinary reporting was nominated three times for a James Beard Award.
