Several Cardiology Fellows who are attending this week\u2019s AHA\u00a0 meeting are blogging together on CardioExchange. The Fellows include Susan Cheng<\/a>, Madhavi Reddy<\/a>, John Ryan<\/a>, and Amit Shah<\/a>. Check back often to learn about the biggest buzz in Chicago this week \u2014 whether it\u2019s a poster, a presentation, or the word in the hallways. Here\u2019s our first post.<\/em><\/p>\n

Chicago has been my home now for a year and a half since I started fellowship. As many of you know, it has a lot to offer, including architecture, downtown beaches, and Oprah Winfrey. Most of all, though, here in the Windy City, we are very well known for our fine food.<\/p>\n

I have compiled a list of my favorite restaurants, most of which are in a reasonable price range and should have availability over the next few days. Be warned though, once you are eating in “the Loop” you are going to pay at least $30-$40 per person (there is no real way of getting around that). Let me know which ones you like, which ones you would not recommend, and when you get there, don’t forget to tell them that John sent you!<\/p>\n
