Adorei o vídeo! Obrigada por partilharem connosco. Um beijinho a partir de Portugal. 😊😊👍👍
So you went to the worst place to see baseball that I've ever been. Should have went to a White Sox game. 🙄
Does anybody actually enjoy a salad on a hot dog??? Just put ketchup on it. It will be okay.
Deep dish tomato soup? Hard pass… 🤮
I never subscribe to travel channels but I enjoyed watching yours so much! It was so personable and honest and I love your story at the end. About to land in Chicago now coming from Tulsa!!!
Any real Chicagoan would have yelled to skip the deep dish and order tavern style.
Nothing beats chicago in the summer time best city ever
Hang out on the south side for a day or so.
Lake Michigan is what makes Chicago.
She is gorgeous!
The planners made sure everyone gets to enjoy her, for free 🥰
Thank you
Sorry, but deep dish pizza is tourist pizza. Chicagoans rarely ever eat it. 95% of the time we eat square cut, Tavern Style which a thin crust pizza.
Vising in 2 weeks, so I'm training myself with these videos lol!!
What time of the year did you go?
I plan on going to Chicago this coming year (in May), and this video gave me some rough ideas on what to do and where to go! Thanks guys!
Nice piece. A couple other thoughts for anyone visiting our fair city: 1) Deep dish is fine but locals will always recommend a neighborhood place that serves tavern style pizza (very thin, cut into smallish squares so you can have pizza in this hand and beer in that hand). 2) Speaking of neighborhoods, the Loop and River North, where most of this is filmed, are visually spectacular but the neighborhoods are where you find gems that locals know about. For instance, there's blues at places like Buddy Guy's Legends (South Loop) and Kingston Mines (Lincoln Park), jazz at The Green Mill (Uptown) and MULTIPLE Michelin star restaurants in West Loop if you're attracted by The Bear scene (and have some money). 3) You skipped Second City. Maybe next time. Highly entertaining and you just might catch someone who'll be a household name down the road.
World class city unknown to the world. I am lucky to live here. Play beach volleyball just steps from a 1,000’ skyscraper. Lots of great restaurants, neighborhoods, friendly, normal people, diversified job market, sports activities, museums, bars and nightclubs, and on and on and on. Excellent suburbs. Yes, we have a winter, and don’t worry, you won’t be going to the bad neighborhoods anyway.
I don’t think I need to go to Chicago, I’ll stay in New York lol but great video!
The City is bankrupt. Major companies have been fleeing for years. Your tourist perspective is fine, but the Chicago government is communist and has betrayed its citizens and just doubled their taxes to continue supporting a massive influx of illegal immigrants.
Save Ferris!
Thanks for such a great video showing off my home town! 😊 Chicago is the best most beautiful city in the USA.
Imo the museum of Science and Industry is the most fun of all the museums in Chicago, when I was in grade school we went there on field trips and as I got older it's still my favorite, also the Planetarium is great
Being from Chicago I can say that we mostly eat thin crust pizza, of course maybe once or twice a year I'll get deep dish but it's not something I order every week
sooo love Chicago! plus u featured the best spots!
I love putting on much ketchup on my chicago hot dog.
Ferris!!!!
Born and raised there. Mixed emotions in today’s Chicago, but growing up there was great.
However I did notice she didn’t have that expensive camera draped around her neck when they rode the Brown line. Pretty and smart..
I enjoy visiting the Downtown Chicago areas since i was born and raised in the North Shore suburbs of Winnetka and i enjoy my new home in the Indiana Dunes. If you ever come back, please feel free to check out the Home Alone house in my hometown.
