Gino's East
This was by the far the most fun day of Spring break. It was my first time going downtown, and it was with the people that mean the most to me. I took the train for the first time and my friend, Vince rode it with me. We left around 12 and got there at 1. We waited for our friends till about 2 and didn't get to Gino's East till about 2:30. We waited for our food for about an hour because deep dish takes about 40 minutes to an hour to make. It was my first "real" deep dish pizza. We ordered an appetizer, Spinach sticks (kind of like mozzarella sticks but with spinach instead) and two medium pizzas-supreme and Chicago Fire. I always knew that deep dish was really good because I heard about it, and I was really excited to eat it for the first time. The difference is is that the pizza is A LOT thicker because of its sausage base. It was absolutely delicious.
*Fun fact: Gino's East was featured on the Food Network for the show, "The Best Thing I Ever Ate"
8:39 PM
St. Alps Teahouse
After a long day of going to Millenium Park and the Navy Pier, we made one more last stop for a food run in Chinatown. St. Alps is known to have really good milk tea! Went to St. Alps Teahouse and ordered Matcha Bread (which is green tea powder bread) and hot milk tea. It was a nice bread & warm drink kind of meal. A good way to end the day on a small meal.
