The holiday season brings with it some excellent Chicago traditions: window-shopping on State Street, the Nutcracker performed by the Joffrey Ballet, eating under the tree at the Walnut Room in what once was Marshall Field's. Along the way, be sure to have a Tom & Jerry and a slab of ribs at Miller's Pub.

Reviews of Le Passage and some of Chicago's other hottest nightclubs, as well as a selection of kid-friendly bars. In the meantime, if you'd like to shoot as an idea or make a request, let us know.
