I'm going to Chicago next Friday-Monday and it will be my first trip to the Windy City. What are some must sees? Places to eat? Tours?

I'll be staying on Magnificent Mile.

If you go to Harry Carry's restaurant, just down the street is the House of Blues. AWESOME PLACE!!!!

Also, check out Millinium Park. It's pretty impressive, and FREE!

What are you looking for? Shops? Nightlife? Sports? Museums?

The new Sears Tower SkyDeck is AWESOME.

great pasta but it smells like sewer there something awful. I did not like it there but that's just me. I went to Wrigley to see my cousin play in a all American game. That place is something to see if you want to go for a tour.

you gotta get some pizza at Giordano's in the Wrigleyville area. I was there two weekends ago and had it. For me, it was the best pizza ever.
