Coming to Chicago
My DH and I will be in Chicago this weekend and are looking for something to do on Friday. We have been to the Navy Pier and Michigan Ave. before, is there anything we absolutely have to do? We are staying at the Westin Michigan Ave. so any suggestions around there would be great. Also, if you have suggestions on where to eat, that would be much appreciated.
TIA!
Re: Coming to Chicago
metromix.com is always where I go to see what's going on in the city on a certain day. It'll also give you a good idea on places to eat

Hi!
I have lived in downtown Chicago for the past 6 years so I know a lot about the city. My husband and I just bought a condo in the John Hancock Building which is right across the st from where you are staying so we go out a lot in that general area.
For Breakfast -
- Yolk - 747 North Wells Street, Chicago, IL?
(I haven't been here to Yolk yet but I've heard it's really good!) You'll have to wait around 30mins ish at both places but the line goes really fast at the Pancake House!For Dinner -
As for things to do - have you been to the Shedd Aquarium? That's always really fun! I know you said you've been to Navy Pier but they have really fun boat rides!
I hope this helps!
Let me know if you need other ideas!

I have a list of my favorite restaurants in my bio. Feel free to take a look and let me know if you have any questions.
The Chicago River boat tours are up and running again, and if the weather is nice, I highly recommend the architectural boat tours... they are fantastic. the new Modern Wing at the Art Institute is also worth a visit if you're a museum lover.
Because we're fancy like that.
I second metromix
You could go to the cubs game tomorrow night! Or just hang out at a bar in wirgleyville watching the game and enjoying the atmosphere.
