Please don’t come with corny childish “go to o-block” jokes. You’re too old for that breh. You’re pushing 45.

Now that I got that out the way. I have a short list of ideas but need more. Is The Loop the best place to stay? I’ll probably Uber or catch public transit everywhere.

Skydeck
Navy Pier
Beach (best one?)
360 Tower
Riverwalk
The bean
Boat tour

Typical tourist stuff but let me the know other shyt to do. I just want to remove Chicago from my bucket list and I have to use this flight credit before October.

Good soul food?
Best deep dish pizza?

I don’t really eat bad but I’ll try a sample if I’m there and traveling. I don’t drink either.

The deep dish shyt overrated. If you ain’t tried it then I guess you can just to say you’ve had it but if you’ve already had Chicago style deep dish then that’s a waste of time tbh.

Also make sure you check in with Common and Twista before you touch down :ufdup:

I stayed near Mag Mile when I went, right across from 360 Tower. 360 Tower is dope as fukk too, especially if you have a lady to go with you. Don't do like I did though and go when it's cloudy...I couldn't see shyt :francis:


Next time I'm hitting up the Navy Pier, it was too cold when I went so I didn't fukk with it.

I had Giordano's...which I guess is the main tourist pizza spot. I'm not a fan of Chicago style pizza I'll be real so I wasn't impressed...I was more satisfied with The Cheesecake Factory.

The deep dish overrated facts. shyt tasted like one of them Red Baron joints. Also, all that don’t need to be on a glizzy…a pickle and tomatoes is crazy.

I went to Provare, an Italian-Creole fusion restaurant and a Mediterranean spot named Aba both were great.

I went to a Cubs game and DuSable museum. The theater district is nice too signs are beautiful at night my favorite is the Cadillac Palace Theater.

You gotta tap in with me at 63rd & Harlem by the high school before you can rotate through the city :ufdup::birdman:

In all seriousness the best pizza is either home run inn or lou malnati's

I echo that public transit is definitely the move since there's easy access to most tourist spots. You can also take it from O'Hare.

Hit up the mag mile to see some baddies. When I lived there alot of my visiting friends wanted to go to the Starbucks Reserve Roastery, its pretty cool so maybe that. Also if the weathers nice try and hit up the beach
