Check out Budyy Guy's place.&nbsp; I went there and saw and awesome blues band and Buddy jumped up on stage with them.&nbsp; Then he came and sat next to me at the bar and we bullshitted for about a half hour.

<p><font size="3">get some deep dish pizza,&nbsp; takes 45 min. to cook but its worth the wait.&nbsp; the museum of science and industry cool to, its close to the aquriam.soldier field is new and the sears tower or john hancock bldgng. is coo, great view of the city.&lt;a href=&quot;<a href="http://imageshack.us"><img/">http://imageshack.us&quot;&gt;&lt;img</a> src=&quot;<a href="http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/4963/chicagort1.jpg">http://img242.imageshack.us/img242/4963/chicagort1.jpg</a>&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;Image Hokosted by ImageShack.us&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;</font></p>

<font size="4">sorry about the pic&nbsp; its of chicago</font>

<p>Get the pizza, but ONLY from <a href="http://www.loumalnatis.com/" target="_blank">Lou Malnati's</a>.&nbsp; Honestly, there are a couple places I prefer over it, but for someone making a quick&nbsp;trip it's the easiest and best place to get to and sample the local deep dish.&nbsp; Get it with sausage on top....and speaking of sausage, the area around Wrigley field is a lot of fun.&nbsp; Great neighborhoods, great bars, great shopping...parts of it are pretty gay (huzzah!), but hey, so is the Village.</p><p>The aquarium is great, and so are the museums in the area around it.&nbsp; Navy Pier is nice to walk around and enjoy a lazy day, but reeshy's right, it is pretty pricey.</p><p>In general, it's a great city to just walk around, especially near the lake.&nbsp; Just don't end up around Cabrini Green and you'll be fine.</p>

I've never been to chicago, but I was watching the food network one day, and saw that they had a Weber BBQ restaurant.&nbsp; They bbq stuff indoors, with some serious ventilation.&nbsp; I thought that was pretty bad ass.&nbsp; You may want to check that out.

Go see King Tut at the Field Museum.&nbsp; He's there for a limited time only.<br />

[Mike from Bklyn]

Thanks to everyone that answered.&nbsp; I will definitely be going to Lou
Malnati's Pizza and the Weber Grill. I'm going to the Nine steakhouse.
I've been to the one in Vegas and it was good and I think the original
is in Chicago. <br />
The Field Museum was on my list. Also was the Aquarium, Sears Tower and Soldier Field.<br />
Thanks again to everyone for the advice.<span class="postbody"><font size="3" /></span><span class="postbody">
