Kuma's Corner, burgers named after metal bands. The burger just called
the Kuma, with bacon, cheddar and a fried egg, is tremendous.

Hot Doug's, which someone already mentioned.
Art Institute of Chicago is pretty wicked cool.
Catch a show at the Empty Bottle, they have some free nights and some
$3 nights. Nice club, really nice bar as I remember.
