It's been another jam-packed year, and the Time Out Chicago editors spent it experiencing all of the great things this city has to offer. We tried all of the best new restaurants, went to countless concerts and hung out at the coolest bars sipping innovative cocktails. Yes, it was the year of the Cubs (but next year looks even better) and the sushi burrito, but it was also so much more. Here are our choices for the best of the best this year.
