I love Chicago. It’s my favorite “big city” to go for business or for pleasure.
There’s so much to do and see - and hundreds of good places to eat all kinds of food, especially steaks and chops. One of my favorite restaurants in Chicago is the Chicago Chop House. It is a classic Chicago bar and restaurant. Anything on the menu is guaranteed to be great, and the wine list is spectacular.
In the summer you can charter a sail on one of the tall ships out on the Lake. That is a must-do. Put it on your bucket list. And take a river boat tour - it’s great fun and you learn a few things about the city, too.
Read the Chicago Tribune for news you can’t get in the other daily papers. There are a lot of crime stories, but a lot of human interest things, too. A great weekly column by Garrison Keillor, best known as the radio host of “A Prairie Home Companion.”
