I mean "Chicago" in Mexico? The more I thought about it the more senseless it seemed, until, in a blazing fireball of revelation, the answer appeared before me... You know how Mexicans take Spanish and "coin" new words with it? Like in Spanglish, they come up with stuff like "loncheria", a play on "lunch" and "eria" typically is the "add-on" for any type of shop or store, "carneceria", (butcher shop), "dulceria", (candy shop), etc... Break down "Chicago" into it's Spanglish components... KRICO
