What can I do in Chicago in February?

Travel Info
It'll be cold, I know that...:-)

Travel Tips

Yes it's cold, but the shopping and restaurants are fantastic any time of year. Be sure to take a bracing morning walk along the navy pier, then go to 'Fox and Obels' for breakfast. I recommend the eggs benedict with shaved truffle. To drink?..their chai latte is the best I've tasted anywhere.

The best, but by no means the only shopping is on North Michigan Avenue. I think this street is better for shopping than 5th Avenue in New York. If you're looking for an ipod, check out the apple store....cheaper than european prices!

There is no shortage of great restaurants in the city, but I would recommend you try the 'Cheesecake Factory'. In fact you can combine a visit there to an hour or so on the observation deck at the John Hancock Centre. Fantastic views of the city and the restaurant is in the basement. Be prepared to queue for a while but it is worth it. Don't expect to have room for cheesecake though...the meals are enormous, so buy the cheesecake to go.

Pizza Uno is the original american pizza house, again the portions are huge. I'm a big guy...ordered the small...could only eat half of it. Delicious though.

Don't worry there will be loads to do and see..it is my favourite city in the whole world. Just a word of warning don't travel too far outside the 'loop' or midtown area after dark and you will be perfectly safe there.

Have a great time.
