Thank you so much for the beautiful oak serving board! We can’t wait to use it during the many dinner parties you’ll be invited to this winter. Looking forward to celebrating with you at our wedding!

For a kitchen gift you received before your wedding

How did you know we were dreaming of those crystal champagne flutes?! They’re by far the most beautiful glasses in our home and we’ve never felt fancier. You’ll have to come over soon so we can toast to you! So excited to see you in June.

For drinkware you received before your wedding

We had a blast dancing the night away with you at our wedding. We also can’t thank you enough for the espresso maker. Our mornings have never been brighter! We can’t wait to see you in Austin next month… all caffeinated up!

For a coffee gift you received after your wedding

Where have you been hiding those killer dance moves? Thank you so much for rocking out at our wedding. And we absolutely love our new cast iron skillet and cookbook! We’re already cooking up a storm. Hope to see you soon in New York!

For cookware you received after your wedding

Thank you so much for the beer-brewing kit! We hope to be sipping backyard IPAs with you in no time. We missed you at the wedding, but know you were there in spirit. Can’t wait to see you when we’re back from our honeymoon!

Jennifer & Yuhui

Read the captions - the captions are important! Since we're getting married in Hyde Park, we've kept most of our recommendations around the South Side - let us know if you'll be staying elsewhere and want recommendations for your neighborhood!

Quintessential UChicago date night dinner: Pizza + BYOB + milkshake at the Med (Jennifer also literally lived off of their olive ciabatta). We highly recommend the garbage pizza and milkshakes.

Medici On 57th

Valois Restaurant

Our favorite dumpling place! Definitely make reservations.

Qing Xiang Yuan Dumplings

Triple Crown Restaurant

Promontory Point

Taqueria Los Comales

THE best carnitas!! and horchata!! If you're going to Pilsen and eat pork - would recommend going here for lunch and then going to the National Museum of Mexican Art (free and so good!).

Carnitas Uruapan Restaurant

Yuhui's favorite deep dish; Jennifer's least favorite deep dish (you can go to any location but this is the one in Hyde Park!)

Giordano's

Jennifer's favorite deep dish; Yuhui disagrees.

Lou Malnati's Pizzeria

Pearl's Place Restaurant

Yuhui wanted to cater from Harold's; Jennifer did not appreciate the joke. Our choice for late night food when you're craving something greasy - we always get the quarter dark with mild AND hot sauce.
