Holiday fun in Rosemont

Rosemont offers plenty of family holiday fun, so WCL co-host Ji went there to take a spin (and a few falls) at the Chicago Wolves Ice Rink at MB Financial Park and visit Santa HQ, his state-of-the-art workshop, at the Fashion Outlets of Chicago.

In studio, we got a taste of Hofbruhaus Chicago and Kings Dining & Entertainment, both located at MB Financial Park in Rosemont.
