Eating well in Chicago is easy. For special occasions, you cannot go wrong at mk, whose mission statement describes food "as a metaphor for the good things in life." The décor is sleek and soothing, and the menu is ambitious without being pretentious.
For
fantastic high-end Italian, there's CocoPazzo, which serves
homemade pastas and thin-crust pizzas in a
festive, wood-ceilinged room. For lunch, check out its lighter, cheaper, but no less delicious sister, CocoPazzo Cafe, just off the Magnificent Mile (636 North Saint Clair Street, 312-664-2777).
It's Chicago, so you might want a steak. Your best bet is Gibsons, where the filet, "big porterhouse" and the martinis are
consistently top quality. If it's Friday or Saturday, don't miss Hot Doug's for its duck-fat fries. The hot dogs are also divine, whether a standard Chicago-style or ones named after stars like Jennifer Garner, Elvis or Madonna.
