>>> ALBANY PARK ON THE CITY'S NORTHWEST SIDE IS ONE OF CHICAGO'S MOST DIVERSE NEIGHBORHOODS.

IT'S ALSO HOME TO AN INCREDIBLY VARIETY OF RESTAURANTS.

ADVENTUROUS PALATE, THEN YOU'LL WANT TO BE ON JUNE 21st FOR THE CITY'S LARGEST RESTAURANT CRAWL EVENT.

FLAVORS OF ALBANY PARK.

>> FLAVORS HAS BEEN AROUND FOR ABOUT 13, 14 YEARS.

IT'S REBRANDED A LITTLE BIT, AND WE'VE TRIED TO CAPTURE AS MUCH OF THE DIVERSITY, AND ELEVATE ALL THE VARIATIONS OF CULTURES THAT WE HAVE IN THE AREA.

WE HAVE OVER 40 LANGUAGES THAT ARE SPOKEN HERE.

I WOULD DOUBLY SAY THAT PEOPLE DON'T KNOW THAT UNTIL THEY COME EXPLORE.

SO THROUGH FLAVORS, WE FINALLY HAVE BECOME THE LARGEST SINGLE DAY OFFICIALLY RECOGNIZED BY THE CITY IS THE LARGEST SINGLE DAY RESTAURANT CRAWL.

WE HAVE OVER 80 RESTAURANTS PARTICIPATING.

A LOT OF THEM ARE NEW.

A LOT OF THEM OPEN RIGHT DURING THE PANDEMIC.

PEOPLE GET A TICKET, THEY GET A PASSPORT, AND THEY DO THAT AS THEIR GUIDE TO TRAVEL ALONG THE ROUTE THAT THEY'VE CHOSEN, AND FOR THOSE THREE HOURS, THEY GET TO WALK TO RESTAURANTS AND SAMPLE, WHETHER IT'S A TASTY BITE, YOU KNOW, WHETHER IT'S A DRINK, OR A DESSERT.

SO THEY WILL BE SAMPLING MULTIPLE CUISINES, AND THEN THEY GET TO ENJOY A FREE AFTER PARTY OUTDOORS AT A LOCAL PARKING LOT .

SO THEY'RE HOSTING US, WE'RE GOING TO HAVE FREE MUSIC.

SO EVEN FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE NOT ATTENDING THE CRAWL, THEY GET TO GO AND ENJOY MUSIC FOR FREE.

>> JUNE 21st IS THE SUMMER SOLSTICE.

IT'S THE LONGEST DAY OF THE YEAR, SO COME AND ENJOY ALBANY PARK.

STAY AS LONG AS YOU WANT.

>> THERE IS JUST A LOT TO EXPLORE.

JUST THE CULTURE.

I MEAN, YOU CAN LITERALLY GO
