Hot dogs? Burgers? Where's the beef?
Tuesday, April 25, 2006
There are 4 places in Chicago where you can get authentic Italian beef. J&C's downtown, Buono Beef in Forest Park and Oak Park, Johnny's in Elmwood Park, Al's on Taylor St. and....Portillo's. If the only stuff you reviewers have ever eaten at Portillo's is burgers and hot dogs you are truly missing what this place is famous for - it's the beef. It's juicy, it's filling, it's huge and It's Italian!!!!
If the only beef you ever had is at storefront fast food places, I can understand your reluctance to try it. But if you go there often, TRY THE BEEF!!!!
