Chicago Food Tipps

Breakfast
For breakfast, I chose to go outside and went to this excellent restaurant called "Beatrix". Only about 10 minutes walk from the hotel, I went into this stylishly decorated place. As I was by myself, I was chuffed that I was able to sit at the bar. My favourite spot in a restaurant when travelling by myself. We should do this more in Europe... But to sum it up, great looking place, tasty food, fresh juices, good coffee, and friendly service. Thumbs up!

Dinner
For dinner, we went to Nico Osteria, an Italian seafood restaurant in my Gold Coast neighbourhood. Very chic and stylish place, bar seatings and tables are available and the homemade pasta is to die for! I loved this restaurant for the wine, the food, and the excellent service!!

Casual Dining
For a casual dining place, I can absolutely recommend the french chain if "Le Pain Quotidien" restaurants - tasty food, great coffees and rustic, yet stylish interior with big communal tables. I'm a big fan of their quiches and homemade mint lemonade!
