Kevin was an absolute superstar! Very knowledgeable, great guy. Felt like I knew him my whole life. Food was amazing and learned a lot about the city.

Glad you had fun with Kevin. He is an old soul and easy to connect with. He is cut from that Chicago cloth instilled with midwestern hospitality and a wittiness to his storytelling that makes his tour like lunch and a show.

Chicago Dave took us on a Food Tour of Chicago. He is beyond knowledgeable, personable and entertaining. We learned such interesting history and facts about not just the food but the surroundings, history and architecture. Needless to say, the Chicago Hot dog, Italian beef and pizza were the highlight! It was a joy to be on the tour! I mean really did you know that the powers to be reversed the flow of the Chicago River!! It still blows our mind! Thanks Dave!!
