Chicago

I spent the weekend in Chicago, the first time I'd been there. It's a great city. Though it's got more of a big-city vibe than Boston does, it's not quite New York, either.

I've got some longer reviews in the pipeline, but here are the short versions:

Do not eat at Pizzeria Due.

If you must eat at Pizzeria Due, follow it up with cocktails on the 96th floor of the Hancock Tower as the sun is setting. (Try not to look at the big, juicy spiders right outside the windows. Eeeurgh.)

Absolutely eat at Café Spiaggia. It's not inexpensive (though it's apparently less expensive than its sister restaurant, Spiaggia), but so worth it. Every bite was perfect.

Was this your first visit to a great lake? What did you think?
