One thing I love about Chicago is how the trains go over top or parallel with roof tops. I also loved the art museum. Only ever been there in the dead of winter but the summer looks like a vibe.
The summertime in Chicago is a completely different experience. The beaches are open, there are festivals every weekend and the city is much more lively.
Lou Malnati’s is definitely the superior Chicago style pizza! If you’re ever back in Chicago, I recommend checking out Portillo’s. They have a really good Italian beef sandwich, and their cake shake has an entire piece of chocolate cake mixed in it.
WOW! Portillo’s was definitely the other rec we received, but we weren’t told about the entire piece of cake in the shake! Haha thanks so much for the recommendation!
No one calls it Cloud Gate and it keeps Anish Kapoor up at night. Just like Sears Tower will always be Sears Tower.. whatcha talkin bout Willis 😂 I’ll throw my hat in the ring for Giordano’s, though. It’s my fave Chicago deep dish.
Glad you spent time in our City! Come back and check out more restaurants and Cubs game at Wrigley Field Let’s Go Cubbies !!
Thanks so much! It’s such a cool city - we definitely need to spend more time there :)

Agreed! The city has such a lively feel to it with all of the elevated trains. We loved visiting in summer - you’ll have to plan another trip!

I really want that pizza! I’ve still never been to Chicago… someday!
Ooh definitely check it out! Such a cool city, especially with the Riverwalk!
YEAH, it's called the bean. Cloud-gate came from the higher and higher cost to build the thing.
Makes sense! Definitely going to stay the Bean to us! Haha

Ha this is good to know! I had forgotten that Sears Tower had another name, too! We will have to give Giordano’s a try next time.
This is amazing! Love this so much
We had so much fun exploring for the day!
If I had to pick one, I would pick Lou Malnatis !! But prefer Pequods :)
Adding Pequods to our list! Haha
Enjoyed the video. Great job.
Thanks so much for following along!
Everyone calls it "the bean".
Ha - good to know! We had no idea it even had another name. We’d only ever heard it referred to as “the bean”.
Let’s start a huge Lou Malnati’s vs Giordano’s fight in the comments.
Which side are you on? 👀
