It was more the fact that it is 30 seconds away and I didn't have time to drive to, sit down and eat REAL Chicago food.

What did you get, a "Maxwell Street Style" polish hotdog sandwich with grilled onions and mustard?

I actually don't care for their hot dog sandwich. I got the grilled chicken sandwich (with no portillos original recipe heilman mayo) and had them add avocado.

I love Tombstone pizza. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE IT

Never will I call it good.
Tombstone is my favorite frozen pizza. Especially pepperoni. My wife thinks I'm crazy but I like it.

that's just fantastic guys, perhaps you should start a thread about shitty frozen pizza that costs 5 times what it did like 5 years ago, with like 5 times more sodium. Unless you had Tombstone for lunch, then I guess carry on...

I agree with the blowing part.

Let's see, do I want an overpriced dry ass italian beef? Or do I want an overpriced "chicago style" hot dog that doesn't even come with celery salt?

Or maybe I will eat an overpriced chopped salad or maybe even some terrible ribs.

Guess I could also go with a burger that's had all of the juices and flavor smashed out of it on the grill, tastes great on a stale bun.

So many choices but which one will make for the most mediocre "chicago style" food experience???

It's all relative. There are no Portillo's (or anything remotely similar) in Nor-Cal, so I view Portillo's as a special treat - make a bee-line for it whenever I'm back in the motherland.

Comparatively, people fly out here and hoof it to In'n'Out, which IMO is garbage (albeit good fries).

Lemongrass chicken breast Bahn Mi samwich, extra jalapenos, hold the mayo. Ate all the fillings, half the bread.

Delicious, but am still hungry, damnit.
