What I miss most about living in Chicago is the wide variety of both shopping and food. I still crave Numero Uno pizza, Portello’s Italian beef sandwiches and Ricobene’s chicken vesuvio. I also miss having Nordstrom, Saks, Bloomingdales and Nieman Marcus stores close by. Back in the day the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale was my shopping …
