Pics or it didn't happen.
Next time you come out to a meet, I'll load up the contacts in my phone.

Found a pair of sunglasses I thought I had lost. Turns out they were in the Audi all along, it has one of those sunglasses holder thingys above the rear view mirror.

What kinda food / venues are you looking for? There's definitely a lot of things worth checking out here.

You should take a boat/river tour. Wendella Boat tours has a really good one.

Weather permitting, of course.

^^I'm staying at The Palmer House hotel(a couple blocks from the Willis building) this morning there was a movie being film right in front of my hotel, it was pretty cool. Been eating at some places near by, they're alright. I'm not picky on food, if there's anything good nearby you guys can recommend would be awesome. Thanks for the suggestions.

Some of my favorite downtown restaurants:

Rock Bottom Brewery
Pizzeria Uno / Due (*MY* favorite Chicago-style pizza, but this is an often-debated subject)
PF Chang's
Andy's Jazz Club (a favorite among my family)

All of these are around State street North of the river. I feel you're going to find some of your best options in that area.
