About this Event

Simsim Sessions: The Mid-Day Set
Cairo street food collides with Chicago house-music and the vibrant coffee culture of local gem Drink Happy Thoughts in an exclusive pop-up hosted by Brandon Valentino. Chef Ashruf El Safy debuts his Egyptian street food concept, Simsim, serving a tasting menu built like a tracklist, where each bite drops with the music. Special guest DJ RGO mixes live, tying each dish to the rhythm of the room.

This is not brunch. It is a rare midday coffee run with fire, flavor, and music all under one roof. Capacity is limited to 100 - secure your spot soon!
