Hi! I’m here to talk about my trip to ‘The Windy City’ back in 2015. It was one of my roommate’s birthday weekend and we all felt like we needed a getaway – what better way to celebrate than a trip to Chicago?
Because this trip was so long before the inception of this blog, my memory is a bit hazy so I am just going to compile a list of things to see, eat, and do while in Chicago. These attractions are surely not to be missed!
- Visit one of Chicago’s many great parks and see historic landmarks like Buckingham Fountain & The Giant Bean (Fun Fact: The Buckingham Fountain is the fountain featured in the opening credits for the show ‘Married With Children’)


- Stuff your face with some delicious Deep Dish Pizza at Giordano’s


- Grab a drink on the 96th floor of the John Hancock Building in the Signature Lounge!


- Bite into a famous Chicago Dog (Hint: Don’t ask for Ketchup!)

- Take a stroll through Navy Pier

- Visit or Watch a game at the Home Of The Cubs

- Take a River/Lake Boat Cruise

- Explore various neighborhoods of the city, including Oldtown and Chicago Riverwalk

- Scarf Down an Al’s Italian Beef & ‘Make it WET!!!” (By far my favorite thing to eat in all of Chicago!)

- Experience a Jazzy Brunch at River Roast


BONUS: Visit the eclectic neighborhood of Wicker Park and grab a Jazz Record!


Chicago was so much fun, I cannot wait to revisit. Have you been to Chicago? What is your favorite thing to do there?
