Nestie from South Florida needs help...
Good Afternoon ladies! We will be traveling to Chicago in November to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary and need your help. Could you please recommend a nice/good/classy restaurant (not seaffod) were we can dine on Nov. 15th (Sunday) - our anniversary. I would also like your help in finding a bakery near the hotel (will be staying at the Westin Michigan Ave) were I can get a mini replica of our wedding cake - any recommendations?
your help is greatly appreciated!!! oh one last thing, how cold will it be in mid-november?
Re: Nestie from South Florida needs help...
Hi! I would suggest eating at Spiaggia for your anniversary. It's right by your hotel (across Michigan and 1 block north). DH and I had our reception there and loved everything about it! Very classy restaurant and amazing Italian food. I would also recommend Sarah's Pastries for the cake. It's located 1/2 a block from Spiaggia and reasonably priced (we got my birthday cake there for $30). DH and I used Sarah for our wedding cake and it was also amazing. She's also so sweet and great to work with.
As far as the weather, I could be mild (mid-40s) or snowing and freezing Chicago weather is pretty unpredictable, so I would plan to check online the week you need to pack and see how cold it will be. Good luck planning and have a wonderful anniversary!
Weber Grill, Fulton's On The River, Signature Room on the 95th Floor of the Hancock Building. All are pretty expensive, depending on how much you want to spend.

Thank you both for your recommendations. I will be sure to check them out, and decide where to go.
