Things To Do
Found ($$$)
Eclectic dishes created from locally sourced food. Taina's favorite restaurant.
Blind Faith Cafe ($$)
Incredibly tasty vegetarian and vegan dishes. Adam is NOT a vegetarian and still loves this place.
Lucky Platter ($$)
Quirky diner with high-quality, elevated American-style food. Especially delicious for breakfast and lunch.
Sea Ranch Sushi ($$)
Simple, local shop with fresh, delicious sushi and incredibly friendly Japanese staff.
Colectivo Coffee ($)
One of many fun cafes in Evanston. But, this shop is where we met for our first date!
Peet's Coffee ($)
A favorite Evanston coffee cafe. Half a block from the Woman's Club.
Architectural Boat Tour
A must-experience cruise offering live architectural narration throughout downtown Chicago from the perspective of the Chicago river. Recently voted #1 boat tour in North America.
Museums
The Shedd Aquarium, Field Museum of Natural History, Museum of Science and Industry, or the Art Institute are excellent options for a day in downtown Chicago.
The Riverwalk
Stroll along the Chicago River through downtown and enjoy fantastic views and excellent restaurants.
Chicago Cubs Game
Home game against the Milwaukee Brewers at historic Wrigley Field on Saturday, Aug 20th at 1:20pm. Buy tickets online.
Chicago Botanical Gardens
Located 30 minutes north of Evanston in Glencoe, IL. The gardens offer relaxing, spectacular grounds with lakes, native woodlands, and an "extensive living plant museum." Great place to walk and grab a light meal. Be sure to ask Adam about the romantic service road walk past the trash dumpsters that he took Taina on during their second date. Not to be missed!
