We just got back from a wonderful weekend in Chicago. We headed over there with friends Brandan & Kaly, Rich & Tracie, and Curt & Amanda. We stayed at the Ritz courtesy of Andy's work discount (ooh la la!) and had a fabulous time shopping, dining, drinking, and dancing. We had several great meals, including usagiya for sushi (usagiyasushi.com) and Riccardo Trattoria for great Italian food (riccardotrattoria.com). Both were a little off the main drag (short cab ride away) but very, very well worth the effort. I am still craving the Honey Moon chicken from usagiya as well as the olive bread and goat cheese salad from Riccardo. So amazing! I literally licked my plate clean at usagiya (classy, I know...) Our last meal there was Chicago-style pizza at Giordano's. Always good. Oh, and the shopping was fun, too. We spent three hours in Nordstrom at their Half-Yearly Sale and all found good deals. I do love Chicago!
