The Taste of Chicago

Monday we decided to take a trip downtown for the Tast of Chicago.  Seeing as we've lived here for 2 years (and I have been visiting here all my life!) we had never been...and neither had Theresa!  So we took a few hours and braved the heat and the crowds, and boy was it hot!  The crowds weren't too bad, but we did choose to go on a Monday afternoon for a reason :)

The food was delicious!  Each booth offeres 2 different "Taste" portions of food.  We tried lots!  We had some crab rangoon and beef on a stick at a chinese food stand, a turkey leg from an Indian-Latin Fusion stand, a piece of Lou Malnati's Sausage Deep Dish (yummy!!), toasted ravioli from Harry Caray's, cheesecake from Eli's, churros...oh the list goes on!  We ate too much, but it was all delicious!

We had to have at least one beer too...

Plus, Shawn decided he had to get sometime from the Chiquita Banana stand...notice the super cool banana hat!

We had a great time and all took naps when we got home :)
