I'm incredibly familiar with the River North and Streeterville areas.

1) there is a Trader Joe's on Ontario and Rush (I think) they open at 9 am. You can pick up kosher bagels, lox, cholov stam cream cheese (occasionally the cholov yisroel) they ALWAYS have the tofutti. They also have pareve milks, cereal, fresh fruits/veggies.

2) What do you want for nightlife? Bars? Late night bowling? Late night movie theater? ice cream place? PM me ur response in case I don't check imamother...

3) you are right on the mag mile. there's carriage rides up and down and buckingham fountain at night.

oh! visit the bean at 8 am! alternatively the aquarium opens at 9. get in line at a quarter to 9 and visit! the beach is also open early and usually not to many bikinis at sunrise!
