RECAP: Black Enterprise Celebrates Hoops, Good Food And Team USA In Chicago

On the eve of my last day in Chicago, I had to make sure I didn’t leave without Harold’s Chicken on my fork. While at the epicenter for NIKE’s weeklong event, I and my food co-conspirators stood in line at the Chicago Park District’s 63rd Street Beach House awaiting our order numbers to be called.

For any fan of rap music or Chicago, you can already guess what I had: a six-piece chicken basket (fried hard) with mild sauce and all the french fries I could carry. The line was long, but worth it. Whomever skipped this while enjoying all the festivities, definitely didn’t know what they were missing.
