INCREIBLES LAS COSAS Q’ SE VEN

El extenso distrito de Near West Side incluye Greektown y el próspero West Loop, donde elegantes restaurantes, clubes y galerías se abren paso en medio de instalaciones cárnicas, y donde afamados chefs inauguran un local cada semana. En el cercano Pilsen, la cultura mexicana se mezcla con el underground de Chicago, dando lugar a vistosos murales, taquerías y cafés.

Lo mejor en un día

LP_Icons2010_4D_Morning.gif Se puede desayunar en Lou Mitchell’s (Clicar), que tiene Milk Duds y está cerca del meollo, o en el Sweet Maple Cafe (Clicar), que tiene pasteles y sémola, pero queda algo lejos. Si coincide con el último fin de semana del mes, se impone el Randolph Street Market (Clicar).

LP_Icons2010_52_Noon.gif Se va en tren hasta Pilsen para visitar el National Museum of Mexican Art (Clicar), con exposiciones gratuitas, y pasear por 18th St, con curiosas tiendas, como Knee Deep Vintage (Clicar) y Comet Vintage (Clicar), que comparten acera con Don Pedro Carnitas (Clicar), La Catrina Cafe (Clicar) y otros locales mexicanos, además de pubs hipster como Dusek’s (Clicar).

LP_Icons2010_4E_Night.gif West Loop es una de las mejores zonas de Chicago para cenar, pero suele estar a tope. Se puede intentar reservar en Girl & the Goat (Clicar) o en Little Goat (Clicar), o hacer cola en Avec (Clicar). Se remata la jornada con una copa en RM Champagne Salon (Clicar).

Para pasar un día como los lugareños en West Loop, véase ###.
