CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) - The delightful scent of cinnamon and sugar coated nuts will gently be wafting through downtown Chicago this weekend.

The coo-coo clock is what will signal the start of the 20th annual Christkindl Market.

"With a good glass of wine in your hand, and great German beer, it's always holiday season," said Pete Schallmonser.

Like the bratwurst, they're serving up some new attractions that are really hot.

"We actually have a great luxury toy vender named Steiff, and they're known for their teddy bears," said VP of Christkindl Market Maren Biester Priebe.

"It's just a warm, inviting feeling it's an outdoor market, how could it go wrong?" said Richard Schmidt II of Helmut’s Strudel.
