Spertus Kosher Catering featuring Wolfgang Puck Cuisine
Innovative Cuisine and Spectacular Views at Chicago’s Newest Venue

The new Spertus Institute of Jewish Studies is an extraordinary addition to Chicago’s historic South Michigan Avenue. Designed by the award-winning Krueck & Sexton Architects, the new building features a 10-story faceted window wall that provides absolutely stunning panoramic views of Chicago’s skyline, Grant Park, and Lake Michigan, from almost every room.

This versatile venue features state-of-the-art resources and thoughtful amenities — including the 400-seat Feinberg Theater — making Spertus the perfect place for your community or corporate event, training session, or retreat, as well as a unique setting for your wedding, bar or bat mitzvah, anniversary celebration, family reunion, or any gathering of family or friends. Events can also be planned in conjunction with a Spertus exhibit or public program, or be combined with a private group tour of our museum galleries or our building’s innovative architecture.

Food plays an integral role in Jewish culture. So it’s only natural that Spertus would partner with Wolfgang Puck Catering to bring imaginative cuisine to this dramatic new facility. At Spertus, Wolfgang Puck and Spertus Executive Chef Laura Frankel draw from both personal and professional experience to bring a deliciously creative twist to kosher cuisine. Dedicated to using only the freshest, highest quality, seasonal ingredients, our culinary team works closely with Chicago’s regional suppliers to create flavorful food for everyone, whatever their culture. Wolfgang’s renowned ‘a la minute’ cuisine and sophisticated service will make your event as special as this spectacular new setting.

Both Spertus and Wolfgang share a passion for innovation and excellence, as well as a commitment to ecological sustainability. Their partnership brings outstanding food and warm hospitality to this stunning, environmentally sensitive setting. Wolfgang Puck Catering’s professional full-service staff will work closely with you through every stage of your event, creating menus specially designed for your guests and assuring an impressive, successful result.
