We were turned onto The Spice House in Old Town on a food tour and were looking forward to revisiting this time while in Chicago. Unfortunately, while we were there (11/2-11/4) the main store was closed due to water damage from a fire in the bar next door. Fortunately we found they have a small store/kiosk at the Navy Pier. While not as good smelling (can't drop spices all over the floor) as the original store, the staff was great and still a good selection. They have the BEST spices - especially love Vietnamese cinnamon, Lakeshore, and Milwaukee. Stocked up. New containers are improvement. We will be back for sure. Love me some Spice House!!!!! Great place!

While walking along Chicago’s Magnificent Mile one day last week, I stopped at Nordstrom’s on Michigan Avenue. It is so conveniently located, just about a block north of the Chicago River. It is easily accessible by public transportation. This is a beautiful store! Their shoe department is second to none as they have sizes which are often not available at other nearby stores. Nordstrom’s has a wide variety of merchandise of great quality. If you are looking for a gift for somebody, be sure to stop here. You will find just what you are looking for as their employees go out of their way to be helpful.

Ok, there’s every designer you could wish for at this Saks. The store is rather large. Though, all designers are well marked as to which floor they’re located. The salesperson are wonderful. The variety of cosmetic alone can keep you there for hours.
