bigklita Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 QUOTE (daggins @ Feb 19, 2010 -> 03:15 AM) Pequod's - Too bready for me to really love but they melt cheese over the edge crust in a way that is really tasty. Pequod's is amazing it's one of my favorites! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Chappas Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Jan 29, 2010 -> 05:45 PM) My bet is he's talking about Vittori's, on Taylor just east of Racine. It was another favorite for me to and every bit as good as Al's. Sadly I think it has closed recently. That is it. Carm's is good too but I liked their hot dogs better.

Chi Town Sox Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 If you love fish...they also have some damn good breakfast. I suggest Glenn's Diner on Montrose, it was on Diners Driveins and Dives and lives up to the billing. Some of the best clam chowder I've ever had. They even have an apple jack crusted Tilapia! They carry almost every cereal known to man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shipps Posted February 27, 2010 Share Posted February 27, 2010 Smith and Wolinsky's best aged steak you can get in the city IMO, beautiful location on the river off of State St. Shaws Crab house has great king crab legs and cakes. Which is also on north State St. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chi Town Sox Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 Got takeout at Kuma's the other night....ehhhh, I'd rather wait and get the burger fresh and hot, especially since it comes with fries too. Unless you are gonna eat it in your car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleHurt05 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Finally got to Kuma's Corner last night. There was a two hour wait for the two of us, but we got spots at the bar 45 minutes in. Got the Metallica burger and it was pretty f***ing good. I wouldnt do it every week, but I think the wait was definitely worth it. The beers they have make the wait much easier, the Alligash was great. Definitely downed several those during the hour wait for the burger to be cooked. The Half Shell (Diversey/Halsted) is another awesome Chicago spot if you like seafood. Went there Friday, the crab legs there are just awesome.

Chi Town Sox Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 Checked out a new little Pasta place on Armitage and Halsted...Pasta Palazzo, it was on Food Network and a couple of other local TV shows. Most dishes are under $12-13 and it is damn good...highly reccomended Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard Zelig Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 When I lived in Chicago, my favorite place for ribs was Calo's on Clark a few blocks north of Foster. I haven't been there for years, but it looks like its still open. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite pasta place bar none is Pasta Fresh over on Harlem and Roscoe. I was told about this place by this couple that lives next door to me that fairly recently moved to the States from Italy and they completely swear by this place having the most authentic dishes in the city. The place only accepts cash and its only the husband and wife making the pasta on the spot for you so i recommend taking a lot of cash if you ever go there.

Nice, I'll have to check that out...do you mean a lot of cash because it's expense, or a lot of cash to try a bunch of things? They have no website to check so I just want to make sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
