It's a beautiful museum and we have some incredible pieces. I also suggest you visit the Modern Wing.. Chicago was very lucky to have this stunning Renzo Piano designed building!

Food Scene
Bow Truss Coffee Roasters
406 North Wells StreetTheir coffee is SO GOOD! I always get a flat white :)
Everyone I take here loves it! With it's French inspired decor, this place is warm and cozy but sophisticated. It's dimly lit which sets a romantic and relaxed atmosphere but not too much so that you can't hang with just friends. The food and drinks are also amazing! I usually walk there and back if it's nice out which makes me feel better about all the indulging that just took place ;)

Sightseeing
I always take friends and family on these Architectural Boat tours when they visit. They offer a beautiful & unique view of the city from the river and you'll learn lots of fun facts about Chicago's rich architectural history.

LOVE this place! Their veggies and fruits are usually cheaper than Whole Foods and they offer some organic options as well. Great place to pick up some wine and snacks. It's so close too! Just walk South a few blocks and turn left on Ontario and it's right there!
As you may already know, I've left a few re-usable shopping bags for you under the kitchen sink! Please leave them behind when you check out as I use them all the time :)

Lucky you! Whole Foods is just a few short blocks away! Chicago now charges for shopping bags and I'm trying to help cut down on waste so I've left a few re-usable shopping bags for you under the kitchen sink! Please leave them behind when you check out as I use them all the time :)
