THE BEAN E MILLENIUM PARK
It’s in Millenium Park, a park opened in 2004, which are two of the city’s greatest symbols. One of them is the “The Bean”, a work of art made of solid steel and reflecting the sky and buildings of Chicago. The real name of this city symbol is Cloud Gate, but the bean shape has made “The Bean” the most popular name. This is also where the “Crown Fountain” is located, a water fountain that is an interactive video sculpture in which the faces of anonymous and famous people appear. It’s packed with people cooling off in the summer. The park is huge and beautiful and offers a varied program throughout the year.

DEEP DISH PIZZA
Are you going to ask me what to do in Chicago? My chubby spirit will immediately respond: “Try the deep dish pizza”! It has nothing to do with the pizza we know, but it is a traditional dish in the city and it is delicious. It looks like a pie that has a border of about 3 centimeters and has several fillings. The original version (Numero Uno) has lots of cheese, tomato sauce, mushrooms, fresh sausage, pepperoni, onion and green peppers. They say that the Pizzaria Uno was the creator of deep dish pizza. Today it is possible to find both Uno and the dish in several locations across the United States.
