I moved to Chicago two months ago. Here are the highlights so far.

- Clean city
- Elite Fall
- Best food in USA
- Thin crust > deep dish
- Lakeshore path is epic
- No scaffolding everywhere like NYC
- Midwest nice is real

So far it’s 10/10 on the relocation. Ask me anything.

Chicago steakhouses are S-tier.

- Adalina Prime
- Sophia Steak
- Hugo's Frog Bar
- Joe's Stone Crab
- Tre Dita
- The Alston
