Minaj, hailing from Trinidad and Tobago, appeared genuinely impressed by the diverse array of food options available while in town.
The star graced the stage at the United Center for shows on both Wednesday and Thursday nights, captivating audiences with her electrifying performances. After her Chicago stint, Minaj is set to continue her tour with a performance at the Target Center in Minneapolis on Saturday evening.
Minaj’s unexpected nod to Chicago’s culinary scene serves as a testament to the city’s rich gastronomic offerings, captivating even the taste buds of a staunch New Yorker like herself.
