Čikago je jedna od najboljih kulinarskih destinacija na svetu jer tamo možete da pronađete svako jelo koje možete da zamislite, ali su neka od njih potpuno jedinstvena
Chicago is among the world’s top culinary destinations, because here you can find every dish imaginable, but also some that are completely unique
Savršeno gastro-putovanje / The perfect gastronomic journey Nigde se ne jede kao u Čikagu You don’t eat anywhere like you do in Chicago Neki ga zovu Vetroviti grad, dok se drugi drže nekadašnjeg manje laskavog nadimka Second City (da je drugi po redu u odnosu na Njujork). Ipak, svi se slažu u jednom: Čikago je raj za gurmane! / Some refer to it as the Windy City, while others stick to the former, less flattering moniker of the Second City (reflecting its rivalry with NYC) – and yet everyone agrees on one thing: Chicago is a paradise for gourmets!
U pogledu gastrono- mije Čikago ima nešto istinski jedinstveno. Ma- sivni metropolis je redak urbani hab koji istovremeno deluje gla- murozno i globalno zadržavajući auru skromnosti i izostanak pre- tenzije. To je i inače sentiment ko- ji prožima svaki segment lokalne kulture, ali nigde nije tako eviden- tan kao na tanjiru. Jedan od svega nekoliko grado- va ovenčanih „Mišlenovim“ zvezdi- cama i novi dom uticajnih gastro- nagrada Fondacije „Džejms Berd“ svakako ima adute da se smatra me- stom gde se fenomenalno jede – ali između svih čikaških fensi lokala i pompeznih iventa, tamošnji foodiji sa podjednako mnogo strasti (i sla- sti) govore o takerijama iz komši- luka i kioscima sa hot dogom. Ako krećete put Čikaga prvi put, potru- dite se da vam se makar neke od naših preporuka nađu na meniju.

In gastronomic terms, Chicago has something truly unique. This huge me- tropolis is a rare urban hub that si- multaneously appears both glamor- ous and global, maintaining an aura of humility and a complete lack of pre- tentiousness. This is actually a senti- ment that otherwise permeates every segment of the city’s local culture, but is nowhere more evident than on the dinner plate. One of the rare cities to be crowned with Michelin stars and the new home of the influential gastro- nomic awards of the James Beard Foundation, it certainly has the as- sets required to be considered a place where you can find phenomenal eat- ing – but among all of Chicago’s up- market venues and the pomp of its ceremonial events, local “foodies” speak with equal passion (and rel- ish) about neighbourhood taquerias and hot dog stands. If you are head- ing to Chicago for the first time, be sure to include at least some of our recommendations on your menu. Deep-dish pizza If one Chicago speciality could be
