The Infatuation is a restaurant discovery guide that provides reviews, recommendations, and guides to dining experiences in cities around the world. It was founded in 2009 and purchased by JP Morgan Chase in 2021. The Infatuation covers a wide range of cuisines, from fine dining to casual eateries, and aims to help users find great places to eat based on their preferences and location. In addition to their website, they also have a mobile app, a strong presence on social media, and have been running an event called EEEEEATSCON for the past few years.
It’s been in various cities before, but in August it will arrive in Chicago. EEEEEATSCON will be held at The Salt Shed on August 19th and 20th.

EEEEEATSCON is described as:

The event features highly curated groups of local restaurants and exciting imports from across the country, serving food you won’t find anywhere else.
