The couple behind the fine-dining restaurant Esmé in Chicago have always collaborated with local artists, since opening in 2021. At a dinner earlier this year hosted by Unilever Food Solutions, chef Jenner Tomaska created centerpieces for the table that evoked much of the art on the walls. Within the garden-inspired centerpieces were amuse-bouches to kick off the interactive dinner. Guests were invited to “hunt” for their bites, like finding not-so-hidden Easter eggs.
