Chicago Chinatown

Yao Yao, Crain's Chicago Business

Even though Chicago's Chinatown is filled with a diverse array of restaurants, Yao Yao still sets itself apart.

While their familiar Chinese favorites such as sesame chicken or Mongolian beef are great, the main reason I stop in is for their pickled fish stews. It’s their specialty, and they offer a bunch of different varieties.

The dishes are built for a group, but they work for two as well, arriving as a centerpiece where you can toss in extra ingredients.

The space feels relaxed and contemporary, with ample seating and a glass-enclosed kitchen. It's an interesting, memorable style of dining. It might not be for everyone, but if you want to try something a little bit different, Yao Yao is your spot.

Chicago Chinese Cultural Institute, Ping Tom Park

CCCI President led a 90-minute Chinatown history and culture tour to a team from today. The organization has a 30,000 square feet warehouse where they process free clothes and distribute through partner organizations to those in need. Everybody seems to have had a great time.

Our Chinatown walking tours and food tours are great choices to learn about the Chinese American communities and a great way to do team building as well.

Hey Chicago, Chicago Chinatown

Stop doing Chinatown like a tourist. 🛑

If you aren't eating 99-cent BBQ pork buns, exploring hidden basement food halls, or getting lost in an 80,000 sq. ft. Asian supermarket just across the river, you are doing it wrong.
