Chicago is known as the Second City, but for drama(戏剧）it’s first-rate. The city has over a hundred professional theaters, where you can see many of America’s new writers and actors.With its huge eastern European and Mediterranean population, Chicago is the place for food from the Old World. For German cuisine(菜肴）, try Berghoff, located in the Loop which is the business and financial district. If you like the Greek food, go to Greek Islands or one of the other eateries in Greek town, just west of the Loop. If you want a great view and a meal to match, reserve a window table at the 40th floor Everest Room in the Loop.Chicago is best seen on foot. You may check out the shops on North Michigan Avenue, and take an early morning walk in the parks along Lake Shore Drive. In the summer, you may want to join Chicagoans in a swim in the lake.A word on the weather: the city’s famous winds can cause extreme changes in temperature. Even in the summer there can be 30-degree differences― it can be 90 degrees one day and
