The hidden gems that don't advertise in Chicago Magazine are what truly make dining in the city unique.
I know we started with a pretty standard "Dining in Chicago 101" list of places for our first visit. As I return to the city more and more I know we will start to go up the ranks and go farther afield to the true gems.
