While on my business trip to Chicago January 5th and 6th, I had the opportunity to stay at the Hilton Chicago O'Hare Airport. The Hilton was clean, contemporary with great service. Since this was a one night trip, I did not pack my gym gear, however I had to see what I was missing. I have to say, I've stayed at numerous hotels ranging in all price ranges, and they had the highest quality fitness center I've ever seen in a hotel... I was amazed and wished I had my shorts and running shoes. The hotel is within walking distance from the airport, so the convenience factor was amazing. Also while in Chicago, I had the opportunity to eat at Gibson's Steakhouse (Rosemont). The food was delicious, service was great, and atmosphere relaxed... Highly recommended while in the Chicago area (I've experienced both local and chain steakhouse: Capital Grille, Ruth's Chris, etc.). What I ate: Big Filet Mignon, appetizer house salad, with shared baked potato, mushrooms and asparagus. What I didn't eat, but couldn't believe my eyes when they served to the table, their chocolate mousse and carrot cakes. These desserts pieces stand nearly 7 inches and can serve 5 adults easy... I was expecting a small slice. The trip went well, but of course it is always great to get back home to the family.
