Today, we came to downtown Chicago✨ To avoid traffic and expensive parking fees for over night at the hotel, we took a Metra train.
Our train arrived at Ogilvie Transportation Center (OTC) right before noon. So we decided to have lunch at Chicago French Market.
Website is here: https://frenchmarketchicago.com/
It’s located behind the OTC (North of OTC) and there are so many different kinds of food you can select from. Asian, European, Sweets&Coffee, and even Ahi Poke bowl is there✨
We ended up getting food from Saigon Sisters and B.I. Tea and Dim Sum.
Forgot to take photos but From Saigon Sisters we’ve got a steak&meatball Pho and a Banh Mi.
Since I have lots of pho experiences, I would say their pho was 3 stars. But, I understand this is not a sit in kind of restaurant, so I won’t expect better than this😋 Their banh mi was pretty good tho✨
B.I. Tea and Dim Sum is of course a Chinese restaurant.
We’ve got their dim sum combo. In this combo, we had:
- 1 Pork and shrimp shu mai
- 1 Shrimp dumpling
- 1 Beef shu Mai
- 1 Bean curd (Yuba) skin roll w/ pork
- 2 Chicken dumplings
- 1 Signature Bao – we selected Spicy Pork Belly Bao
- And we also got a free Milk Tea came with combo
All of these for $10.95. Not bad at all!! Dim sum were exactly what you’ve expected. So juicy and yummy😋
Unlike other city price $$$ restaurants in Chicago, here at French Market you can buy food at normal price lol It’s a food court style and there are tables in the back too👍
If you are in rush to train, you can grab and go as well 😎
Nice place to try out if you haven’t 👍🇫🇷
