 |  Birthplace of Pizza I have been told by my EyeTalian friends in Utica (pronounced Jootica) that actually, Pizza came from China. Chinese cooks were serving a pasta, tomato sauce and cheese disk about 3000 years ago. They'd love to claim it as Italian but they regrettably admit they stole it from China. |

| Re: wheres the chicagites If you're gonna be up by the Marriott Lincolnshire, you will be about 45 minutes north of downtown. There is a pretty cool bar about five minutes away from there called Half Day Inn. Literally right up the road. Its boasts a college age crowd, and is open till 4 am every night. If thats not to you're liking you can try Schaumburg which is about 20 minutes away, and has a pretty good selection of bars. |

| Re: wheres the chicagites The Cubby Bear North is just down the street from the Mariott Lincoln####e: The Cubby Bear North It's a pretty good sports bar/grill and they have live bands on the weekends. It's a spin off of the original Cubby Bear which is right across from Wrigley Field where the Cubs play downtown. Not as much fun as the original but it's only about a mile from where you'll be staying.  |

| Re: wheres the chicagites I'm not from Chicago, but my dad is and some of my family lives there, therefore I have been there many times. A) Take FlyMcdoofers advice and hit up Wrigley Field. The experience is absolutely amazing. B) John Tenney is right and pizza really did originate in China. |
