. What started out as a limited-run, seven-week pop-up restaurant featuring a rotating mix of industry folk — think classically trained chefs, caterers, self-taught cooks, home cooks, culinary school grads — celebrates its one-year anniversary this month with no immediate plans to stop.Even before the pandemic, Sula and Pokorny had been batting around the idea of doing a pop-up of sorts at the bar.
When pandemic restriction eased and with encouragement and support from the Reader, Sula and Pokorny got Foodball rolling. Pokorny sees the familiar ambiance of Kedzie Inn as a plus for the unusual food being presented at Foodball. “For a lot of people who had never tried a certain cuisine before, this is an environment to do that in, as you’re in a neighborhood bar and it’s not intimidating.”Rita Sinulingga cooks satay chicken for Monday Night Foodball featuring Indonesian home cooking at the Kedzie Inn on Aug. 8, 2022.
During its year-long run, Foodball has earned many diehard fans, a mix of nearby residents, Kedzie Inn regulars and Sula enthusiasts, who learn of the pop-up dinners through his weekly Reader articles and social media posts.
