POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

What started as simple recommendations eventually turned into a community of people who love discovering new places as much as we do.

We’re Vanessa & David two Chicago natives who love food, travel, culture, and the stories that connect people to places. While Chicago will always be home, you’ll also find us exploring Mexico and beyond in search of experiences worth sharing.

Whether you’ve been here since day one or just found our page, thank you for being part of this journey. ❤️

And as always, where should we go next?

Found this lunch spot on @empoapp 🦞

@happylobsterchi inside @fromhereonchi at the Old Post Office is serving up some seriously good lobster. We tried the Walking Taco, the Patio, and our favorite the Angry Lobster with special sauce and @carusoprovisions giardiniera.

Buttery buns, loaded lobster, and definitely worth the stop.

Save this for your next downtown lunch and check out Empo to find more Chicago food spots. taken in Chicago, Illinois by @yummychicago_
