ARCHITECTURAL BOAT TOUR

Chicago's First Lady

We recommend getting the one with the bar on board.

SEARS TOWER (Willis Tower) SKYDECK

The Skydeck

XOCO

Favorite casual Mexican spot. Michelin star chef does tacos n tortas, etc. Bonus: The churros and bean-to-cup hot chocolate are amazing.

AU CHEVAL & SMALL CHEVAL

Upscale diner vibes, Au Cheval burgers with a fried egg and thick-cut bacon are the best in the city. First come first served.

Fast casual Small Cheval burgers are just as good, but they only offer regular bacon and no fried egg.

THE DUCK INN

Ultimate Chicago neighborhood restaurant vibes.

PORTILLO'S

The In-N-Out of the Midwest, Italian beef w/ giardienera, Chicago-style hot dogs and cake shakes are the staples.

MANNY'S DELI

Best corned beef or pastrami sandwich w/ Motzo Ball soup.
