Chicago has become such a foodie city that I don't think we even realize just how foodie we are.

We are a city with an international reputation for award winning restaurants and chefs, consistently taking culinary creativity to the next level. With this in mind, I asked 19 artists to weigh in on their favorite restaurants and chefs.

Paperweights? Yes, paperweights! If you can't really envision what they are (or why), you are in luck. The Art Institute of Chicago which houses one of the largest paperweight collections in the world, is more than doubling its collection.

Former Playboy bunny and current blogger extraordinaire of Candid Candace, Candace Jordan, opened her home to our cameras and revealed her art and passion for collecting in the most popular video of the year.

I usually interview artists on Fear No ART Chicago. However, art collectors, in addition to artists, make it possible for the arts to thrive.

The guys get the inside scoop on the Chicago Sports Webio scandal from Mike North, who tells all about his allegedly crooked business partner and his future as a FBI cooperating witness.
