Chicago Star kicked off its second annual Streeterville Week celebration hosted by Mariano’s Lakeshore East (Amanda Puck and team). The event was a great success and helped promote local (and big) businesses in Chicago while building camaraderie.

Molly Callinan (Too Much Molly Band) and Ellie Kahn wowed the crowd with their vocals while DJ B-Real provided hot back up tunes. Guests also enjoyed a beautiful branded cake created by Mariano’s pastry department and a lavish buffet by Chef Jaymes Berry.
