We really enjoyed this food tour a lot. Our guide took us to places that are not the Chicago common places to go; we were very satisfied with the choices, the food and really enjoyed the history behind the places. These are the places we visited: Gino's East Pizza (deep dish pizza) Bongiorno's Cucina Italiana & Pizzeria (italian meat sandwich) Billy Goat Tavern (hot dog) Palmer house (authentic brownie). On all these places we tasted the beer – the Italian beer at Bongiorno’s was awesome (Ichnusa – non filtrata) Highly recommended.

Thoroughly enjoyed the 4 places that we visited. Lou Malnati’s pizza was our 1st stop, then on to #2 for a delicious Italian Beef sandwich, a Chicago hot dog at Billy Goat’s( watch the SNL skit on YOUTUBE before you go), and the experience culminated with a brownie from the Goddess and the Baker. Come hungry and cancel your dinner plans for the evening you go!

Our tour guide Brooke was amazing! Her love of the city definitely shows through with all the information she shared. Of course we got to try amazing food, but learning the history of the who and why it’s so much fun. We are excited to come back to Chicago and know exactly where we will be eating again.
