You would get better food going to the restaurant yourself. The one slice of pizza was okay, 1/2 beef sandwich was tough and dry no matter how much Au jus you put on, got a small sample pack of popcorn, the hot dog from a street kiosk was barely edible but the highlight of the day was the brownie at our last stop. The only saving grace was that our guide Max was so friendly and kept us all on track even on heat of the day. We enjoyed his walking tour. If this is Chicago best food they are in serious trouble!
