Things To Do In Chicago

Marathon Meals

Whether you've been prepping for the 26.2-mile hell known as the Chicago Marathon, or you're just planning on cheering for six hours straight, you're going to need carbs galore to get you through. Pappardelle, gnocchi, ravioli, bring them on; this is one time it's OK pile your plate high. We show you the city's best sources for carb-loading.

Unearthing Uptown

One of the city's most iconic neighborhoods, Uptown Chicago continues its rich tradition as an entertainment district to this day. Whether you visit Jazz Age venues such as the Riviera Theater and the Aragon Ballroom or hop from restaurant to nightclub, you'll fall in love with this piece of the city's history.

An Oktoberfest Guide to Chicago

Chicagoans don't need an excuse to drink beer, but Oktoberfest certainly offers a good one. Fortunately, there's no shortage of authentic bar and restaurants to chug German brews, down brats and catch an authentic oompa band--with or without the lederhosen.

5 to Try: Lumpia

Forget the ubiquitous Chinese egg rolls and try something different, the Filipino lumpia. As deep-fried appetizers go, the mini cigar-shaped, ground pork-stuffed rolls are about as addictive as they come. Buy them in bulk or enjoy them as starters at these five Filipino restaurants and grocers around Chicago. Trust us. You won't be able to eat just one.

Hot Blocks: McKinley Park

With working class roots, a growing Latino population and timeless eateries, McKinley Park is a straight-up slice of no-frills Chicago. Get inspired at the tranquil park or sink your teeth into diner grub and south-of-the-border fare. You'll wonder what took you so long to find this south-side treasure.
