I have been dying to tell you more about my girl's weekend in Chicago since I have been back. Partly because I have been missing it quite a bit and talking about it with you always brings me right back to the trip! There is a reason I named this post Scrumptious Chicago, and it's because I mean it. Literally. My friend Rachel and I ate our way through the city one restaurant at a time until we had our fill of all things delicious!
Here's the deal, we shopped, we ate, we shopped some more, we laughed hard, slept in, and drank loads of bubbles and wine. It couldn't have been more perfect honestly. Rachel is a great traveling buddy and that could be because we are very much on the same page when it comes to traveling. Experience the city through the food, have no agenda, and see what the day brings! We just went with the flow and walked where our boots took us.
Let's start with the most amazing croissant that these lips have ever tasted. An almond croissant to be exact. If I haven't told you before I'm telling you now, I sort of have an obsession with almond desserts. And this croissant could be considered breakfast or dessert in my book. We inhaled it within the first hour of being there at the cutest French bakery called La Fournette. From there we immediately began shopping. Naturally.
