How can I get to Mitsuwa Market?
I live in Chicago and me and my friend were trying to get to Mitsuwa Market in Arlington Heights by public transportation. If you could, please give us detailed directions if possible. 
Take the “Metra Rail” train at Chicago “Ogilvie Transportation Center” at Madison & Canal Streets. For information on Chicago Station, press the following link: http://metrarail.com/Sched/cnw_nw/chicago_ogilvie.shtml
You will travel with the “Union Pacific Northwest Line” to “Arlington Heights”. Get off at “Arlington Heights” station.For more information on “Arlington Heights” station, press the following link: http://metrarail.com/Sched/cnw_nw/arlington_heights.shtml
Once you are in Arlington Heights station, call any of the two taxi companies in the town since there is no direct bus service to Mitsuwa Market. The travel time from the station to the location is about 8-10 minutes. I have provided the taxi companies with their pone numbers or website.
