About

Welcome! I'm Cara, a self-proclaimed foodie and city girl, finding time to curate this blog in between business meetings and the daily grind. Born and bred in Chicago by an artistically-inclined family, I found myself needing a creative outlet of my own to share my lifelong adoration of living a city life and finding the balance to live each day with intention.

About CGC: City Girl Chicago is my perspective on creating a home in the city and exploring all it has to offer ~ especially food, art and culture!
