Celebrate the timeless legacy of Phife Dawg from A Tribe Called Quest in the most soulful way possible—through food, music, and giving back. Phife, affectionately known as the “Five Foot Assassin,” brought us unforgettable music that spoke to our souls. While he left us too soon due to complications from diabetes, his influence on music and culture lives on. Now, we have a chance to celebrate that legacy while making a difference in our own community.

Fork & Phife is a unique dining experience that combines cuisine with a purpose. We’ve gathered some of Chicago’s finest, including Kevin Hickey and Brandon Phillips from Duck Inn, Maya-Camille Broussard from Justice of the Pies, and Chef Won Kim from Kimski, Chef Ken Polk from Batter and Berries to create an inspired 5-course dinner. Each course is carefully crafted to honor the flavors Phife loved, paired with cocktails and beverages curated by expert mixologists, all while live music pays tribute to Tribe’s greatest hits.

But this night is more than just an extraordinary culinary journey. It’s an opportunity to be part of something bigger. All proceeds from the event will support the KLEO Family Life Center, a vital community organization working with the Chicago Youth Service Corps to raise awareness about diabetes and health education on the South Side. Every ticket sold helps us build a healthier, more informed community.

And as the night moves on, the energy will rise with a live DJ set, creating the perfect vibe to close the evening. Whether you’re a lifelong fan of A Tribe Called Quest, passionate about culinary excellence, or simply someone who wants to make a positive impact, this event is for you.

By purchasing your ticket, you’re not just enjoying an incredible dinner—you’re helping to empower and uplift those in need. You’re contributing to a healthier future for Chicago’s South Side, all while indulging in a one-of-a-kind experience with food, music, and community.

Tickets are limited, and this event will sell out quickly!
