Tourists: Things to Do
Entertainment: Second City Main Stage
Our favorite thing to do in Chicago is to catch a comedy show! Second City has some great options.
Dinner: Duck Duck Goat
Duck Duck Goat is of of Top Chef Stephanie Izard's restaurants. It's inspired Chinese-American food: Would highly recommend the Hongshao Ro (red braised pork belly and mandarin pancakes). You'll want to make a reservation ahead of time for this one.
Tourism: Millennium Park
If this is your first time in Chicago, Millennium Park is where you can see Cloud Gate (The Bean) and Crown Fountain. There are also gardens, artwork, skating, and events to explore here.
Food: Fulton Market District
"Chicago’s intersection of food, design, commerce, arts, and culture." Anywhere we've eaten in Fulton Market has been incredible, so whether you're going to Aba for their Mediterranean-Californian cuisine or Ever, the two-Michelin-star restaurant featured on the show "The Bear," you can't go wrong.
Activity: Riverwalk
This is a 1.25-mile-long pedestrian path along the south bank of the Chicago River, and one of our favorite ways to get some fresh air when we're visiting the city. It runs from Lake Michigan to Lake Street with plenty of attractions and architecture to view along the way.
