We invite the community to join us for another yea

We invite the community to join us for another year of Top Chef: Downtown! For the safety and well-being of our attendees & community, this year's annual Top Chef: Downtown event, sponsored by @hillsbank, will give ticket buyers the chance to be a Top Chef at home. Curated recipes and prep by our Downtown Top Chefs, the 2021 experience will include a take-home box full of everything ticket buyers need for a six-course meal for two. Although we are not able to celebrate Top Chef: Downtown in-person, you can still enjoy appetizing entrees, delicious desserts, and hand-crafted cocktails.

The Top Chef Downtown: From our Top Chefs to Your Kitchen will be a full meal for two with 5 dishes, a dessert, and 4 drinks. Featuring items from @pullmaniowacity, @saintburchtavern, @goosetowncafe, @crepesdeluxeiowacity, @thedandylionic, @iowacityyachtclub, @get_fresh_cafe, @wildculturekombucha, @dumplingdarlingiowacity, and @brixiowacity, each course will include all ingredients, recipes, and/or instructions for each dish. (*Please note that each restaurant will prepare things differently so, some courses may be as simple as bake in the oven, while others may require more steps and time to prepare). Stay tuned to see the official menu next month!

Santa Saturdays are here! Santa is making special

Santa Saturdays are here! Santa is making special trips to Downtown Iowa City to meet the area’s good girls and boys. Kids and families are invited to visit him outside in his sleigh for a free photo. Don’t forget to bring your wish lists and drop off your letters in his mailbox from the North Pole.
.
Santa will be outside in the Pedestrian Mall at the Weatherdance Fountain Stage from 11:00am – 3:00pm (210 S. Dubuque St.) 12/5, 12/12, and 12/19.
.
For the safety of visitors and Santa, the visits have been moved outdoors with a socially distanced line and photo area. Bundle up and dress warm. Additional COVID-19 precautions will require visitors and families to take their own pictures using their own cameras. Santa’s helpers will help direct groups as they take their photo and ask everyone to please keep a safe distance and wear a face-covering. Santa will be in his sleigh with a mask with groups in the photo area or at a distance they feel comfortable with.
