Best burger in Chicago hands down. Prepare for long waits, especially on the weekend. Go at lunch when they open, put your name on the list, and then hop over to Haymarket across the street for a drink. It'll be well worth the wait.

The Sears Tower Skydeck is totally touristy, but also very neat. Officially renamed the Willis Tower, this formerly tallest building in the world provides a 360 degree view of Chicago. The lines can get long, but a trip here can fit into almost any schedule. You can go at the beginning of your trip and get the lay of the land or at the end of your trip and see where you've been. You can go during the day and look out over Lake Michigan or at night and see the lights of the city. Just make sure to go when the skies are clear!
