88 Marketplace

"It’s easy to dismiss the scene where Syd stares at grocery store shelves, but she’s actually at 88 Marketplace. This giant supermarket is on the border of Chinatown and Pilsen, and has a bunch of restaurants inside, including 312 Fish Market one of our favorite sushi spots in the city. There is a separate section where you can sit down and eat during the middle of your weekly grocery shopping. Then go open a restaurant with your dysfunctional family screaming in the kitchen and Jamie Lee Curtis lurking outside." - adrian kane, nick allen

"Head west of Chinatown proper to discover this gigantic Chinese grocery store. The food court houses several different stalls and visitors have a host of choices, including sushi, dumplings, barbecue, pastries, pho, and milk tea. The marketplace’s include full-service restaurants Qiao Lin Hotpot (which serves hot pot) and Holu (an Asian steakhouse). The sushi is handled by 312 Fish Market, which is a favorite of several Chicago chefs, including Kasama’s Genie Kwon and Tim Flores." - Samantha Nelson, Eater Staff

"This giant supermarket is on the border of Chinatown and Pilsen, and has a bunch of great restaurants inside, including 312 Fish Market, one of our favorite sushi spots in the city. There is a separate section where you can sit down and eat during the middle of your weekly grocery shopping. Along with all the spots in the store, there is also Qiao Lin, an excellent hot pot restaurant on the ground floor of the building." - Adrian Kane

"Visitors may want to venture slightly beyond the border to 88 Marketplace. The multi-level complex includes a grocery store and a food court with equally amazing dim sum, barbecue, and even sushi." - Jack X. Li

"88 Marketplace, which opened this summer, bills itself as Chicago’s largest Chinese supermarket, but it carries frozen Korean hot dogs, too, but only the ones stuffed with cheese." - aimee.levitt
