Chicago : October 2011

I went to Chicago last week for a restaurant conference and to do some research on a new restaurant project. Subject matter? Hot dogs. Fascinating research, really. Long history (no pun intended). I had been to Chicago many times before, but there was something about this visit that was different. I was sober, for one, but that wasn't really it. I think this was the first time I visited Chicago with a real desire to take pictures and to document my experience there. It is jaw-droppingly striking city to look at. I don't think I ever really noticed that before. Especially at night. Go there as many times as you can. Just not in the winter.
