Day 193: seventh day in Chicago







We started our day with breakfast at Rick Bayless' restaurant Frontera Grill (see restaurant blog - http://lisa-restaurants.blogspot.com/2010/04/frontera-grill-chicago.html)

After the meal we did a bit of shopping then headed to Wicker Park. Its a very neat neighbourhood. There are many independant shops. It is like Commercial Drive or Main St.

After Wicker Park, we headed to the Chicago French Market. We expected it to be like Granville Island with lots of vendors and shops. But it was indoors and about half the size of the Granville Island Public Market. We walked thru the whole thing in five minutes.

After that we went to eat dinner at Avec (see restaurant blog - http://lisa-restuarants.blogspot.com/2010/04/avec-chicago.html).

Now it was time to head to the Bulls game. They played againest the Bobcats. It was fun. Everytime there was a time out or intermission, there would be an audience participated game or the dancers would come on.

After the game one of my friends and I went to the Signature Lounge on the 96th flr of the John Hancock Building. It was so beautiful at nite. We only ordered a small appy and ordered a drink.
