Discover Chicago-DAY FIVE

Mario's Italian Ice in Little Italy

This is the final day of our Immersion Week. I began my trek by taking the Green Line and getting off at Ashland. I walked south to Madison and took the 20 bus east to Aberdeen. I walked to Carpenter Street and toward Harpo Studios. Harpo Studios is where the Oprah Winfrey show is hosted. When I arrived and looked into the employee parking garage, all the cars that I saw were either Audi, BMW, or Mercedes. It was a pretty awesome sight. I then just chilled in the area until everyone else arrived.

Pegasus Restaurant in Greek Town

We then began our walk towards Greek Town. Ed explained to us about some of the buildings that we passed on our journey to Greek Town. When we arrived at Greek Town, we walked around a bit, and then we ate a famous Greek restaurant We had their famous burning cheese and some baklava. After our time eating there, we began our walk towards Little Italy.

When we arrived at Little Italy, there was this awesome place that had epic Italian ice. There is also this fast-food place that had awesome Italian beef and some good Chicago-style hotdogs. We then walked to Maxwell Street to have some good Polish sausage. Then after that we were free to go.

In the end, today was mostly about food. We covered only one bridge that overlooks the Kennedy Exp. Today contained some pretty awesome food.
