15 July 2021 Chicago Town

 Uptown and Downtown  15 July 2021 Chicago


We walked to our early lunch reservation early.  So we had some time to wander along the Miracle Mile.  The Burberry Building was cool especially since Tony B worked on it.  We checked for durability and the titanium coated stainless steel appears to be holding up nicely.  Then we went to the Purple Pig for a tasty lunch.  We had a Pork Tongue appetizer, a beef marrow schneer and then our entrees.  I got the Pork Belly and Leslie got the chicken thigh skewer.  Such a great meal.   Then we went to the Museum of Contemporary Art.  There was a Comics exhibit.  Thought provoking and fun all at the same time.  A quick side trip to the Spice Shop for some habanero pepper powder and there was our afternoon.

Hmmm, did I forget to shave?



Nope its this guy who needs the shave
