Feeling dazed and confused about which of Chicago’s innumerable dining options to choose? Let a Chicago dining expert be your guide.
Chicago Food Planet specializes in food tours in Chicago’s most historic, delicious neighborhoods. Their signature Near North Food Tour visits eight food tasting locations from mom and pop specialty food shops to one-of-a-kind ethnic eateries, and provides a narrated glimpse into the city’s history and architecture, as well as insider restaurant recommendations.
Stops on Chicago Food Planet’s tour include an award-winning Italian stuffed pizzeria, the country’s top spice and herb specialty shop, a specialty fudge and confectionery store, a gourmet foods and cheese shop, a authentic Ashkenazi Jewish deli, a specialty store selling aged balsamic vinegar and olive oil, a loose tea and tisanes merchant, and a gourmet chocolate lounge.
Each Chicago Dine Around Progressive Dining Tour includes three famous Chicago restaurants. Hors d’oeuvres are served at the first restaurant, the main course at the second, and dessert at the third. Chicago Dine Around selects restaurants which enjoy excellent reviews and which accommodate tour guests with preferential treatment. Meals include wine, and alternate menu options are available for vegetarians and those with food sensitivities.
