If you want to visit Lake Michigan while you're in town, come see the beach where we went on our first date (and where we got engaged!).
The personal favorite restaurant of the groom's father's side of the family. Enjoy American bar food, pizza, and beer. "Guys, it would be way easier if we just did something like... North Branch!"
For the out-of-towners, this is probably the closest Portillo's. Knock yourself out – just don't get Cake Shake on your shirt.
The groom's favorite deep dish pizza of all time. Especially if you're from out of town, make sure to pick some up (or order it to your hotel/AirBnB).
Hearty Eastern European cuisine and a staple for Vassilyeva family gatherings. Our MOH's favorite!
A frequent stop for Nick and Sasha's "Grape Dates." Yes, if you sit at the top of the playground and flirt and eat grapes from a Jewel bag in the evening, you will get some weird looks.
A candle-lit jazz bar right by our apartment! Pay the cover, grab a drink, and enjoy live jazz from 7 pm into the early hours of the morning.
