For Chinese teas, herbal medicines, jade fountains, silk slippers, porcelain bibelots and more, Chinatown is the place to shop. Of course the restaurants are good, too.
Just like in New York's Chinatown, the sidewalk trash bins are often overflowing. But the colored papers and wrappers seem to make the streetscape all the more festive.
Looking for good luck in bulk? Buy a big bag of fortune cookies from one of the grocery shops! Leave a Comment Directions: Cermak, between Wentworth and Archer. 8 blocks due west of McCormick Place Hyatt Regency.

Chicago's Chinatown, located in a small area on the south side of the Loop, is worth a quick stop for lunch or dinner, but definitely not worth being on your list of attractions to closely visit. Although there are some nice features such as this nine dragon screen found on Cermak Rd. just off the Cermak-Chinatown Red Line station, this Chinatown is nothing compared to the Chinatowns of the west coast (e.g. San Francisco, Vancouver, ...) and not as historic as those Chinatowns. But I have to say there are some very nice restaurants which offer a diverse selection of Chinese cuisine at pretty good prices. Be sure to visit a new section of Chinatown found along Archer Ave. Leave a Comment Directions: Roughly located at the intersection of I-90/94 and I-55. From I-90/94 North, use the 18th St. exit. From I-90/94 South, use the 22nd St. exit. From I-55, use the Cermak Rd. exit.Website: http://www.chicagochinatown.org/

Chicago's Chinatown is primarily found on Cermak Rd., Wentworth Ave., and Archer Ave. The picture shows a typical Chinatown gate at the intersection of Cermak and Wentworth. The typical Chinatown street with restaurants and shops is found on Wentworth Ave. And that's all there is to Chinatown. There are no special attractions here. The shops mainly sell Chinese gifts and decorations and household items. There are a few shops that sell fresh produce and meats, but not many I think. Leave a Comment Directions: Cermak Rd., Wentworth Ave., and Archer Ave. on the south side of the Loop.

Chicago has a Chinatown, smaller than in San Francisco but worth a brief visit. This is an excellent place to eat, and to shop for that unusual gift. Leave a Comment Address: 2169 B S. China Pl.

A little piece of Asia in the USA. I like this Chinatown better than the Chinatown in New York. Specially the new structures are interesting. There are many shops and little restaurants where you can feel the typical chinese atmosphere. Leave a Comment Other Contact: Picture: man kiting in a playgro

I'd suggest everyone go to "Three Happiness." It's on the South end of Cermak street... a tiny little dive with good food for a good price. Also a nice starting point to do some window browsing. Leave a Comment Address: 209 West Cermak Road.Phone: 312-842-1964
