Chicago MUST try’s
These restaurants/ places are famous in Chicago and most visited.
Ever heard of Chicago’s deep dish pizza? HERE IT IS! There are multiple locations between downtown and local neighborhoods. This one that I have added will give you the experience to dine in with Chicago locals , but if you happen to be downtown definitely google your nearest Giordano’s!
There is also one located near the apartment at 2855 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60618 (5 minute drive or 13 minute walk ) . This is a smaller location but still just as delicious!
