The Boom Chicago 10 Menu

Regional American

Head Chef Dave Cahill with collaboration from author-foodie Zora O’Neil have been inspired by regions all across the United States to create The Boom Chicago 10 Menu.

From New York mod to Southern tangy to Los Angeles chic, the menu matches the fun of our shows. Noodles come in Chinese take out boxes with fortune cookies. Soup is served in a glass for sipping. Our amuse is macaroni and cheese!

Below is the menu we’re still developing. We expect items will change somewhat.
