There's a billion things to do, so I couldn't tell you where to start. I love it.

If you like sushi, go to Tank in Lincoln Square. Actually, Lincoln Square is my new fav neighborhood.

If you haven't had morrocan, go to Tizi Melloul. Even if you don't like Moroccan, you should go there for drinks, as the bar is super cool.

If you like ridiculous fruity drinks, go to trader vic's, but they have those in other cities, I think.

As far as neighborhoods, you already know about Lincoln Park. You probably also want to check out bucktown and wicker park.

Argh, and I can't remember which skyscraper has the bar in it, but a sunset cocktail up there kills a visit to the sears tower.
