The Foodie

There are food towns, and then there are FOOD TOWNS. A lot of cities can lay claim to a signature local dish. We’ve got dozens. Between the mighty Chicago hot dog, the self-evidently superior Chicago deep dish pizza, or the satisfying Italian beef sandwich, foodies are never left unsatisfied here. Be sure to dig into the best restaurants in Chicago during your visit. 

Adam Sokolowski

As a local tastemaker and social media marketer for restaurants and hospitality, Adam dines out nearly every day in Chicago. His favorite spots to eat are niche and hybrid cuisine types that are hard to find anywhere else besides their origins. Although Chicago is known for its deep dish, hot dogs, Italian beef, you won't find that on his list of his favorite seven places. Adam enjoys the incredibly diversity in dining experiences you can find in Chicago's global culinary landscape.
