Who said you can’t work and play at the same time? Certainly not me.
Chicago is a city that feels like home, no matter how much time passes. This trip has been all about balance... blending high-level work with the kind of downtime only The Peninsula can provide. It’s been a perfect backdrop for reflecting on my time living in the iconic Marina City "corncob" towers; they remain a meaningful piece of my own history.
Chicago is a city of food, and I’m tipping my hat to the spots that never miss. The Peninsula is at the top of that list: Egg Benedict and the best service team every morning, and drinks at the Z Bar (Tim and Krystal are absolute gems). When we step out, our favorites remain a consistent rotation: Smith & Wollensky, Gibsons, Rosebud, and NoMi, but it doesn't stop there. If you need advice, the concierge staff are phenomenal. Lastly, a special shout-out to housekeeping; they not only kept us organized but were incredibly attentive. We are very grateful.
Simply put: The Peninsula knows how to pamper you. They are consistent, classic, and always worth the stay. Perfection in motion.
