Chicago

[jes769]

Hello Folks,

Happen to be in Chicago for a short while but thinking of maybe
extending my stay if the sightseeing - and more importantly the food -
is any good. Can anyone on here give it a thumbs up/thumbs down as a
"good food" City?

Cheers,
Richard

I didn't know there was more than one. I saw a feature on them on one of the
food/travel shows and it gave the impression there was only one.

Oh, c'mon - I lightened up with that (meant to be) lighthearted post.

I do have a pound of crab meat in the fridge. Maybe it's calling me.

Anyway, I'll let you do your Welcome Wagon thing unobstructed. Just
don't go inviting any commie terrorists to the U.S. ;-)

Well, there is one way to look at it. Go to an AYCE place that charges
about $10 per/person. Look around at the people in the place. Guys
with T-Shirts cut off over pot-bellies and dirty shorts and shower
shoes on. Tons of screaming children, some running around all the
tables. Food that tastes like it came out of a mass-produced freezer
box.

Then go to a $50 a person place and look around there.

That's part of the cost. Nice atmosphere, quieter, cleaner and the
food is generally much better than the $10 AYCE joints.

Smoque is off the I-90 about half way between downtown and O'Hare.

Honky Tonk BBQ is in Pilsen, a district of Chicago a bit south of
downtown.

There are a bunch of good BBQ places in the metro area but those are my
favorites.

What do you think is good food? Chicago has great ethnic diversity in
restaurants and if that suits you, you will think it is a great food city.
I always visit Sayat Nova for Armenian/middle-eastern - my favorite.

If your idea of a good food city is one with a great thin-crust pizza or
"hot dish", don't bother; but, if you like sausage in all its glorious
variations, you'll love Chicago. In my book, Chicago is among the three
best cities for food in the US; but, I like diversity in ethnic dining.

Regardless, it all boils down to what you like whether it is a "good food"
city.
