I went to Chicago for my honeymoon too! We stayed at the Embassy Suites on the near north side. Hard Rock Cafe, Rock n Roll McDonalds, Ed Debevicks, Walter Peyton's restaurant, Michael Jordan's restaurant, Planet Hollywood, Michigan Ave. and shopping and a carriage ride, Capone's museum (it's fun, really!), are within walking distance. There is (or was?) a great Greek restaurant in the Embassy Suites. For cab rides we went to the Sears Tower, and then to Second City Theater. You have to go to Second City. It's an improv place and I laughed so hard that tears ran down my face!
Have a lot of fun! *wink*

Hit the bars and restaurants around Wrigleyville. Not as pricey as most of the other places name, but a great atmosphere, particularly on game days, Lots of bars with the huge windows open, lots of TV tuned to sports, lots of people, music at night. And since there are so many bars and restaruants, they are in competition for your dollar so there are ALWAYS drink and food specials. You can have a great time with a little money. Even if the Cubs are out of town, there's still a lot to do there. There's the IO, an improv venue with inexpensive shows ($5-$10) that are sometimes pretty funny. There's a few places with live music like the Wild Hare (a reggae bar) or the Metro (mostly rock and punk but the music can vary). There are places to have breakfast and places to have dinner. For your tourist dollar, you can get more bang for your buck than at the fancy, expensive places.

Since you are going to Chicago you have to see the blue man group and Wicked. they are the most amazing shows. regarding food make a reservation at the ninty fifths signature room, when there are no clouds the view is amazing.
