- We had an 8-hour layover at O'Hare International Airport so we decided to go out on the town & spend one amazing day in Chicago (including eating deep dish pizza at Lou Malnati's, visiting the Bean at Millenium Park, and walking the Chicago Riverwalk)! Join us for an amazing travel day in Chicago as we make the most of our long layover.

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.
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!
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.
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.
Enjoyed the video. Great job.
Thanks so much for following along!
This is amazing! Love this so much
We had so much fun exploring for the day!
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? 👀
