The Coolest, Weirdest, and Best Museums in Chicago
"South LoopRace through world history, from dinosaurs to ancient cultures The Field Museum is not just one of the biggest and best museums in Chicago -- it’s one of the biggest and best natural history museums in the world. This is one of those museums you can spend all day inside, getting lost in the most magical way through three floors and almost 500,000 square feet of exhibition space. And, fun fact: The museum itself came out of one of the most important events in Chicago’s history, the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition."

22 Best Italian Restaurants in Chicago, IL
"Located in what many call the "real" Little Italy, Bruna's Ristorante is a mainstay in the Oakley Avenue area and has been satisfying voracious appetites since 1933. Their longstanding history in the neighborhood is more than enough proof of their culinary prowess, but for the doubters, one bite is all it takes to squash all doubt. Bruna's has got all things Italian covered with their exceptionally tender veal limone and a great selection of pastas."
Mentioned by Time Out Chicago
The 23 best Italian restaurants in Chicago
"Restaurants Italian Lower West Side. This old-school favorite opened its doors in the Heart of Italy neighborhood in 1933, which almost explains the faded travel posters and weary saloon decor. But the kitchen is far from tired, going beyond typical pastas and parmigianas to specialize in rustic dishes from Siena."

The 20 Best Italian Restaurants in Chicago
"Thrillist lists Bruna’s as one of the top Italian restaurants in Chicago. This restaurant first opened in 1933 during the Prohibition, and there is still a sense of the restaurant’s history evident in its dining room. It is popular amongst the locals because of the great ambiance and the hearty portions."
