Pretty Yummy Thing: Tommy Up’s Burger Lounge At The Piazza
Ask Tommy Up for the real meaning behind the initials in P.Y.T., his new burger joint at The Piazza, and you won’t get a straight answer. Most will immediately make a connection to the song by the late King of Pop, but Up won’t admit where it’s from, sarcastically offering suggestions like: Pad Your Tummy [...]

Tuesday, July 14, 2009
In May, we took a first look at the Franklin Square burger operation under development by Starr Restaurants Catering. What we had then dubbed the “Starr Shack” (for obvious reasons) has now ditched the tent and moved into a solid structure, officially named SquareBurger. The menu has slightly evolved from what we saw at the [...]

Friday, July 3, 2009
On July 4th, 1776 our forefathers wielding a quill in one hand, and a sandwich in the other, signed the Declaration of Independence.

Summer is hot dog season in the United States, and according to the National Hot Dog & Sausage Council, we will consume over seven billion (or 818 per second) frankfurters between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

NO ketchup. [...]

Friday, April 24, 2009
The sole Portillo’s in Chicago-proper has come a long way from its Villa Park, IL roots. Originally dubbed, “The Dog House,” Portillo’s began as a less-than modest hot dog stand in 1963, operating out of a 6′ x 12′ trailer without a bathroom or running water. Since then, they have exploded into over thirty Illinois [...]
