Awesome video! Can you believe that I have been in Chicago my whole life, but I have never done any of these things, haha. That mulled wine looked good, as did the yule log. The zoo lights look interesting as well...and I don't have the balance to go ice skating, I think. One day I want to catch the CTA holiday train! Like I said, great video. BTW: In Argentina there is a dessert similar to yule log called "pionono." Does that mean anything in Puerto Rico?
I'm the same with ice skating! Haha But Maria really likes it. The CTA is a ton of fun. A pionono in PR is savory, made with plantain and stuffed with meat. But... We have a brazo gitano, which is similar to an Argentinian pionono.
The holiday trains are becoming a big thing in almost every big city...so cool! One of our favorite things about the holidays are the lights. They look soooo awesome 😍
Hey Maria and Nabol!! Don't you two look so cute all bundled up for the winter!! Awesome to see these 10 things to do, in winter in Chicago! Bears has only been to Chicago once in the summertime. Butters only drove through Chicago with no stopping LOLOL!!!
Hi guys! Chicago is so beautiful this time of year! The Walnut room was neat and I love that tree! 🎄 The food looked fantastic and now I want to make a yule log! The ice skating looked fun, especially the place that looked like a track. And of course that pastry shop is calling my name! I'm not sure what curling is but it looks fun. So many cool places, thanks for taking us around guys!
Yessss!!! Make a yule log so we can learn how to make it!!!! This was a fun video to put together. Now we need to go on a diet!! Hahaha Well... maybe after the holidays. :-)
Maria and Nabol my girlfriend and I have been together since 2016 and we’ve been every year since 2017. It’s the best Christmas vacation I can think of. Something super romantic about Chicago in December.
That souvenirs mug was too cute, and great that you collect them! The Daily Plaza looked so cool.. We would love it there! WOW!! That Christmas tree at Bloomingdale was MASSIVE!! And the streets were lit up so beautifully!! You guys go all out in Chicago for Christmas time!
This really, really makes me want to visit Chicago at Christmas time! I would love that ice skating rink❄️ The city has so many Christmas lights and it’s just beautiful! And that Apple filled donut!🍩 I guessed right about who was better at curling!😂 Oh you have to go sledding someday, you’ll love it!❄️
Ah that wind that cuts right through you, it’s still worth going downtown. Like you said the city is just so beautiful during this time of year, lots to do! Thanks for bringing us along ❤️🎄
I don't like shopping much (Imagine that) but I do enjoy going to the mall around the holidays. Something about the foot traffic and decorations that makes me feel happy.
Seeing Michigan av and the water tower reminds me of when I was applying for a transfer to the Sephora there before they opened... I can only imagine how different my life would be if I had done it.
I’m sold on Christmas in Chicago!! Nabol’s face when he bit into the Yule log is me every time I eat dessert! That was a beautiful restaurant! I really like the ice skating “pathway” too. Oh my, the donuts! Yes!!!
Beautiful , awesome video. The most beautiful city 8n the world during the holiday season is Chicago. I love Chicago my sweet home. Merry Christmas in 2022.
Wow beautiful video! I This really captured most of Chicago's wonderful festive winter time. I enjoy taking walks in downtown Chicago during the holiday season it's really nice. I hope y'all have a great holiday! 😊❤️🎊❄️✨
You did a magical work in these Top10 do things in Chicago video.love the street decoration in Michigan Avenue .Macy's walnut room was just superb.Wowww,what a Christmas tree .Chicken pot pie is looking so creamy.That yule log reminds me France memory.Joyous CTA train ride.love the apple stuff donut from Dinkel's Pastries.
Chicago looks amazing during the holidays oh my goodness I think this will be my 2020 holiday trip!!! This year was New York City and I had an amazing time. I’m adding your video to my bucket list playlist thank you guys
This was such an Awesomeeee video! Like I really enjoyed from beginning to end . You two are great! I hope you tried sledding!!! I'm from upstate New York in the Adirondack mountains . Sledding is an every year thing! Thanks for sharing. :)
Absolutely beautiful guys. Chicago knows how to decorate and put on a show. You guys are so rugged up it must be freezing there. Awesome fun guys. Merry Christmas 🎄 😘
How cool is that train that carries Santa Claus!! Chicago is super Christmasy indeed this time of the year 😍 Thanks for taking us there with you through this video 😊
Chicago is so pretty in December ..btw does the Walnut room have a buffet ? We have to pay for our zoo lights 😔...curling looks fun ..I don't think we have that down here lol .. awesome video guys ..hope you guys have a great weekend 😀
It does have a buffet.. just a bit pricey for our budget. It's $30 per person but there is quite a lot of food. If you can manage to eat a lot, then absolutely try this. We want to try it sometime. Have a great weekend too!
Perfect Christmas tour of Chicago. Love your suggestions. And your voice over is perfect with the B roll. What a beautiful sunset evening sky. Chicago looks more fun and friendly than NYC. You guys always hit the best foodie discoveries. Great share, James and Kim
Hi James!! Thanks for the nice comment!! We had a ton of fun filming this one. Chicago does have a very magical Christmas and every business goes all out. Glad we could take you along.
Love the Nabol intros. Weekend with a stroller was not a idea at the Christkindlmarket. We got our mugs also. Love the running joke of trying to get into Starbucks. Love the Walnut room. We use to do Breakfast with Santa there. Not use to seeing Nabol with no hat. That’s a huge tree. Chicago is so beautiful. I did not know about the Holiday train. So awesome!! This is my favorite format you guys have. Was it cold at the Zoo? Hey we were there!!! Glad you included it to the top 10. Wow Curling!!! I have always wanted to do that. Maria wins everything. You the score to Maria v. Nabol Challenge. Thanks for taking us along.
Breakfast with Santa sounds awesome! Their kid's menu is on point. Every time we go to the zoo is superrr cold for some reason. Haha Glad you guys enjoyed the video!
It brings tears to my eyes knowing that we’re not going to have this for Christmas 2020 it looks so beautiful, the WALNUT ROOM always transform amazingly for Christmas. The outdoor activities are amazing, to hot 🍫, wine and good food and socialize with a stranger and meet new friends, such a great time, this will be missed. I love Chicago. Great video.
Merry Christmas to the both of you as well! Can't believe Nabol has never been sledding before? You guys have to come up here to West Michigan again and we'll take you on some good sledding hills that we know of!! There's also a nice ice rink downtown Grand Rapids as well.
My little one and I are moving to Chicago soon, and videos like yours help a lot. We're coming from Southern California, so it will be a big change for us. I just subscribed so I can keep up with what's going on in Chicago, so keep up the great work!
So glad to hear that! Hope you're moving when it's not so cold. It always helps make the transition smoother. :-) We moved from Texas here and it was a bit rough at first but we really enjoy it here now.
@@KimchiAndBeansVideos Yes, we're moving in the summer! Family wanted us to move there in October, but I wanted to give us some time to get adjusted and not go when it's on the brink of getting cold, lol. Looking forward to checking out more of your videos!
I was just at the MSandI 3 weeks ago for my wifes get together at her company.. So many great Christmas trees on display!! Didjt know curling exist in Chicago! So much fun!
Hey, Kids...this place is AWESOME!! Saw the Santos Crew at the first place, and would definitely want to see it ALL!! Macy’s is the BEST!! That TREEEE😳 you guys fit right in...having the most fun I’m sure! Food looks IH MAY ZING, and I’m taking your words for it! Did you skate?! How FUN, the Santa train!! This vid has a FESTIVE FUN VIBE...I’m calling it Chicago’s Christmas Finest!! Hope you know we live vicariously through you two...keep up the HARD work...but do Christmas SCREENLESSLY!! Hugs to you, from me! Lisa (Take me to one of the big cathedrals there!!)
We love that title!!!!! Glad we could take you along. We had so much fun putting this video together from beginning to end! Big hug from us too!! That cathedral is gorgeous!!!
The Macy's Walnut room was so grand and beautiful! You can never go wrong with meatloaf and chicken pot pie! Two of our favorites!! The streets were all lit up so pretty, and how cool they had a couple places to go ice skating!! Butters LOVES ice skating!!! That's nice they have Santa on the train for kids and all the workers are dressed up as well!! Can't believe that bakery has been open since 1922.. Nothing like European baked goods!! Loved seeing the Christmas Trees from around the world, and how cool you guys could go curling and rent the lane by the hour!! Definitely don't have that here in LA!! Butters loves curling too!! LOLOL Great video and lots of love to you both!! Have an awesome day!
Ice Skating os sooo much fun. Nabol is not a big fan though. Haha That bakery is a dream! So much history and great pastries. We love it there. Curling is so much fun. We need to go back with friends! :-) So glad you enjoyed this video! Big hug!
I can remember as a child dressing up to visit *Marshall Fields* looking at the window displays, getting that chicken pot pie & the Frango mints.😋 Good times...
Of all these things the ice skating ribbon with with the Chicago city backdrop looks so cool. Followed by a theme restaurant 😍 You guys have so much festive spirit over there in Chicago! Merry xmas guys 😁
Wooooow Hi Maria and Nabol - Food & Travel Videos!!! Looks so so beautiful! I like your video.Thanks for sharing, Maria and Nabol - Food & Travel Videos!🎄
Time to mingle with the Kris Kringle! 🎄 The Christmas spirit is flowing in Chicago! That market is perfect for all your Christmas needs, and taking in that stroll to see all the lights and decorations! Macy's always goes out with their decorations too, same in NYC. I would so do ice skating if I can balance lol.. but I'll fall before I get on it! Curling!! I want to try that haha..
Hi Guys!🙋🏻♀️ This was fantastic!🤩🤗 I loved that you guys took us around to your favorite places. I would love the market and the Walnut room. The Yule log looked so delicious! And the bakery oh so yummy!😁😋😍 I loved all of the Christmas lights and the wonderful window displays! That train was so cool too. 🤗 Wow! So many wonderful things to enjoy for the Christmas season. I’m jelly!😁 Magical share my friends! Have a beautiful weekend!🤗❤️❤️🎄🎄
You guys are so CUTE!!! I am having a glass of Zagreus Shiraz from Chile whilst enjoying your video. Not Puerto Rico - but another Spanish speaking country - haha! Loved the Walnut Room - what kind of mashed potato was that?? I am always on the lookout for good mash ... You made the city look absolutely magical. Loved that ice rink around the city. Reminds me of my home in Ottawa where we have the Rideau Canal. And the name at the holiday train "Bryn Mawr" is WELSH! I would love to hear how you Chicago people pronounce it. (the correct way would be "Brin MOWer (rhyming with NOW-er)" Loved your hair at the bakery, Nabol. Loved the editing and music - whole video was fantastic. Thank you for helping me feel in the christmas spirit x
Nice choice of wine!! Chile works for us. We would love to do a wine tour down there. Those were whipped mashed potatoes. So good! Now we need to visit Ottawa! Bryn Mawr is Welsh?!! That's so cool! That's the main avenue in our neighborhood. I think it sounds more like "Brin Mar" here.. Haha Glad we could take you along!
Loving this video you guys, I have never ate at the Walnut room and I just realized I'm totally missing out. Lol, need to go. omg, I didn't know about Santa train, lol xoxoNadia💋
We didn't know, but this is what we found: The Christkindlmarket name comes from the actual myth of the Christkindl. She is a fairy-like being, dressed in a gold and white robe with a crown upon her golden locks. The Christkindl traditionally is the bearer of gifts to all the children in German-speaking countries. Very interesting!
Haha That's very hard! We like so many. Some of our favorites our Kyoto, Seoul, Busan, Lisbon, Madrid, Strasbourg, Mexico City and Portland... to name a few. :-)
Awesome video!
Can you believe that I have been in Chicago my whole life, but I have never done any of these things, haha.
That mulled wine looked good, as did the yule log.
The zoo lights look interesting as well...and I don't have the balance to go ice skating, I think.
One day I want to catch the CTA holiday train!
Like I said, great video.
BTW: In Argentina there is a dessert similar to yule log called "pionono." Does that mean anything in Puerto Rico?
I'm the same with ice skating! Haha But Maria really likes it. The CTA is a ton of fun. A pionono in PR is savory, made with plantain and stuffed with meat. But... We have a brazo gitano, which is similar to an Argentinian pionono.
@@KimchiAndBeansVideos I will have to look up brazo gitano...the name is familiar for some reason. Are you going to make coquito this Christmas, haha?
Already did! And it’s gone! 🤣 We have to make more!
It's pretty amazing how cities transform during the holidays, Chicago looks so beautiful and inviting, especially with all the lights at night
Yes, so true! It makes you want to go outside despite the cold weather :-)
The holiday trains are becoming a big thing in almost every big city...so cool!
One of our favorite things about the holidays are the lights. They look soooo awesome 😍
Yes, the lights put you in a good mood for sure :-)
Hey Maria and Nabol!! Don't you two look so cute all bundled up for the winter!! Awesome to see these 10 things to do, in winter in Chicago! Bears has only been to Chicago once in the summertime. Butters only drove through Chicago with no stopping LOLOL!!!
Chicago is so much fun during the summer though. We wouldn't be able to do a list. Hahaha :-)
Loving the old school vibe of Dinkel’s with the lighting and signage. Over 100 years old!
That place is awesome. They also sell their goodies at the Christmas market downtown.
Hi guys! Chicago is so beautiful this time of year! The Walnut room was neat and I love that tree! 🎄 The food looked fantastic and now I want to make a yule log!

Yessss!!! Make a yule log so we can learn how to make it!!!! This was a fun video to put together. Now we need to go on a diet!! Hahaha Well... maybe after the holidays. :-)
Ok the way you just started your intro sounds like the beginning of a holiday show, your voice was so commanding. It had a vintage movie quality.
Hahaha Thanks man! So glad to hear that. I still don't like my voice. LOL
Only a fellow RUclipsr comments on intros and voice quality. Haha!!!
@@RenLuuk lol. How do you think we screen for those we are going to collaborate with haaaaa ;o
Never a dull moment in Chi town!
Haha So true!
Food look delish, especially Nabol something something from 1890
That something something was amazing! LOL
So cute and nice family. Such a beautiful family. God bless you
Thank you, friend!
I hope Covid doesn’t slow down that Chicago Christmas spirit. Planning my trip now. Fingers crossed.
Hope so too. It is beautiful during Christmas.

I love seeing Christmas markets around the world!
Absolutely! Same here. :-)

Yes!! We need to go sledding! Hopefully this year! :-)
Haha I don't know what it is but something about curling always makes laugh lol If I played I'd try to be super serious like on the olympics
Hahaha I know! You would be surprised how many people take it sooo seriously. We have leagues here in Chicago. It's crazy.
Love the themed decorated restaurants! all that white, green and red!!
They are a ton of fun!
Beautiful Christmas tree is always there in the Winter, very beautiful
Hey Gunner! Yes, they put it up every year :-)
Ah that wind that cuts right through you, it’s still worth going downtown. Like you said the city is just so beautiful during this time of year, lots to do! Thanks for bringing us along ❤️🎄
So glad we could take you along! Happy Holidays!
So many cool places to check out in Chicago. The Maggie Daley skating ribbon looks so awesome!
That place is cool!
I don't like shopping much (Imagine that) but I do enjoy going to the mall around the holidays. Something about the foot traffic and decorations that makes me feel happy.
Hahaha Same here! We totally understand.
Apple filled donut looks awesome!
Ufff... I could have 4 of those!
Seeing Michigan av and the water tower reminds me of when I was applying for a transfer to the Sephora there before they opened... I can only imagine how different my life would be if I had done it.
A lot different probably. But you have something good going on! :-)
@@KimchiAndBeansVideos I wouldn't change it for anything in the world !
I’m sold on Christmas in Chicago!! Nabol’s face when he bit into the Yule log is me every time I eat dessert! That was a beautiful restaurant! I really like the ice skating “pathway” too. Oh my, the donuts! Yes!!!
Hahaha Nabol makes so many faces when he eats. Like a little kid! That restaurant was so pretty. And the donuts!!

Wow Chicago has lots of cool things during Christmas, that Macy's is really fancy, fancier than the Macy's in NYC. I like the CTA Holiday train.

Chicago is super Christmasy indeed this time of the year 😍

Hi 👋🏽 Velma! We hear you. It’s not going to be the same for sure.
Merry Christmas to the both of you as well! Can't believe Nabol has never been sledding before? You guys have to come up here to West Michigan again and we'll take you on some good sledding hills that we know of!! There's also a nice ice rink downtown Grand Rapids as well.
I know! We'll need to go there sometime to try it. It would be so much fun!

Welcome to the Windy City. Chgo's a 180° from L.A. The biggest adjustment ( Naturally) will be the weather. All the best🙏🏿
I was just at the MSandI 3 weeks ago for my wifes get together at her company.. So many great Christmas trees on display!! Didjt know curling exist in Chicago! So much fun!
Those trees were aweome! And curling is the bomb! Best with friends though!
Looks so much like NYC at this time of year. Wow. We've never been to Chicago together and have been trying to make our way there. Maybe 2020??
You should! :-)
I envy the fact you guys got a beautiful cold xmas yet we have hot ! Hot hot summer 😂
We're actually used to hot weather Christmas being from Puerto Rico. This is a bit too cold for us. Haha
that is cool, i would love to try the holiday train. i wish there are something like this in Singapore
The holiday train is always fun. Would love to ride the one in Singapore!

downtown chicago Christmas
Like i asked Carl, how did they come with the name "chriskindl"? He didn't know
We didn't know, but this is what we found:
The Christkindlmarket name comes from the actual myth of the Christkindl. She is a fairy-like being, dressed in a gold and white robe with a crown upon her golden locks. The Christkindl traditionally is the bearer of gifts to all the children in German-speaking countries.
Very interesting!
Tell Maria beats you at axe throwing and curling?
She does man! Hahaha
WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING!!!!!!!
museum must be cheap?:)
Can't remember... like $30 for both of us, I think.

Haha That's very hard! We like so many. Some of our favorites our Kyoto, Seoul, Busan, Lisbon, Madrid, Strasbourg, Mexico City and Portland... to name a few. :-)
