Cool Chicago Places

The Book Cellar

Independent bookstore in Chicago. Serves coffee, wine, beer. Welcoming atmosphere and a great place to browse for books.

Icosium Kafé

Good crepes, great coffee.

The Art Institute of Chicago Museum

Terrific museum. Get a membership so you can attend whenever you want.

The Bean

Located in Milleneum Park, the heartbeat of all things happening in Chicago. Personally, I think the bean is a representation of Chicagoans' addiction to coffee.

Rockefeller Memorial Chapel

Home on the University of Chicago's campus. First saw this place when I went to see Neil Gaiman's reading during his One Book One Chicago mini-tour. (For Mayor Daley's rather hilarious description of Gaiman's Neverwhere, click here.) The whole campus is beautiful.

Chicago International Film Festival

Need I say more?
