Off to Chicago for a couple of weeks with work. Any tips on what to do with my spare weekend in the middle and what I should see in the evenings?

Any local info would be great!

Cheers
Ben

The City itself is surprisingly small, so if you're right in the heart for work just wonder around of an evening and sort yourself out for the weekend. It's well worth going up the Sears tower (or whatever it's called now). Personally I think it's a better place then New York. Just have fun man. Oh, and it is amazingly windy on the shore.

Sears Tower is now the Willis Tower. Take a camera!
Make sure you pop down to Navy Pier.
Take the architecture boat tour, very interesting.
Have a Hot Dog with "The works" at Felony Franks (Misdemeanor Wiener)
Drink plenty of Goose Island IPA
See a gig at House of Blues or Buddy Guy's Legends
Take the Train to Milwaukee and visit the Harley factory.

Chicago is great!
