Thanks for the tip, I'll paste this in my Chicago folder for next time, like I did for the trip to Andersonville and Little Saigon, which was also suggested to me here in this forum. I did part of Wicker Park/Bucktown during my 2009 trip but we just walked from our hotel on Huron to Division then west through Cabrini Green until we reached Milwaukee. I think we quit at North, just couldn't walk further...lol
I actually wanted to see Pilsen and other areas but this time we had to be guide to our friends so we were less adventurous than usual.
Next time blue line, in three trips we took only the red and the brown, so it's time to check something else out.
Thanks.

Marothisu, thanks, I will watch the video tomorrow when I get home from work, really appreciated!!

As for bar Toma, I didn't have the pizza because it was the last night and we were all super full after 5 days of serious eating. I had the sliced prosciutto, which was great as it was aged, the calamari, done more like it's done in Italy and not Florida style, so not over breaded and not over fried and the huge Bar Toma salad. Couple of glasses of wine. I will definitely go back next time.

My buddy though had the pizza there and liked it very much.

When the Hawks won that game 6, it was great and yeah, my Italian friends were surprised at seeing all the cars blasting their horns in celebration...they thought people do that stuff only for soccer...lol

I'll put Little India in my things to do for next time, so I can also see something a bit away from the city, as in my first three visit I never got south of Hyde Park or north of Andersonville.
Thank you again!
