Elgin,

Founded in 1836, the busy city of Elgin sits 35 miles northwest of Chicago and incorporates more than 1,600 acres of open parkland. Wandering through the city's downtown neighborhood is a journey through time, as historic architecture nestles between modern structures. Rentals in central Elgin, some of which sit beside the sparkling Fox River, include Victorian buildings and modern townhomes.
Warmer days in Elgin call for a visit to Al's Cafe and Creamery on Dupage Court, where lunch options like flavorful schnitzel and freshly prepared salads satisfy enthusiastic appetites. Try Al's chocolate malt for a cool, sweet dessert and a little energy boost on a hot afternoon. Restaurant choices for supper include the Toom Toom Thai Restaurant on South Grove Avenue. Fresh Thai curry, crispy crab Rangoon, and savory potstickers make Toom Toom a top choice for locals.
