NATIVE CHICAGOAN
Some of my favorite places to dine & sightsee in my hometown.
TASTE
"First, we eat. Then, everything else." - M.F.K. Fisher
DMK BURGER BAR
One of my favorites. Delicious bison burger, immaculate mac & cheese, and a roasted marshmallow milkshake that'll have you begging to go hit the bags with me later. Absolutely sinful.
LONGMAN & EAGLE
This Michelin-Star rated restaurant features a whiskey bar, and a rotating drink menu. Their food menu also changes with the seasons.
THE FISH KEG
Their deep fried clams and scallops are my favorite, though sometimes I find myself in the mood for all the other beautiful seafood they have on display. Worth the travel up North!
BIXI BEER
One of my favorite recently discovered spots. Great selection of oysters and Asian-American fare.
CINDY’S ROOFTOP
I love a good restaurant with a view, and an off-the-charts cocktail menu to boot. Cindy’s is located in the beautiful and historical Chicago Athletic Association building downtown.
AU CHEVAL
One of my favorite spots on Randolph street, home of some of the best burgers around, and thick-cut bacon to die for. Let’s gorge ourselves!
SEE
Beautiful places to visit in Chicago
The Driehaus Museum
A Gilded Age mansion in River North full of Chicago history and jaw-dropping architectural and design details.
Chicago Botanic Garden
What girl doesn’t love flowers? Come explore the beautiful greenery with me.
Buckingham Fountain
Classic tourist spot, and right next to the Mag Mile and all the best things on Michigan ave. A gorgeous sight to see in the summer when the fountain is on and lit.
Bahá'í House of Worship
The only Bahá'í temple in the US, and a gorgeous work of architecture. A stunning place to meditate, reflect, and think.
Promontory Point
Arguably the most scenic view in all of Chicago. Let’s check out this manmade peninsula in Burnham Park.
