"We are not sure how many cities have secret baking societies like Chicago, but fortunately, here, you don't have to be a member to enjoy its booming baking scene. With almost 9,000 bakeries, it's clear that the city takes sweets and slices seriously. For proof, look no further than 2019 James Beard Award winner Greg Wade, whose crusty loaves and pastries have been the talk of the town for years now. His bakery, Publican Quality Bread, just opened its second location in Oak Park." - Dobrina Zhekova
