Vienna Beef is where it's at. Hard to find outside Chicago though.

Haven't tasted a hot dog as good as a Chicago dog. Have you been to Rands in Chicago? 3 bucks for fries and a chicago dog. Bargain!

The only place I've got takeaway from in Chicago itself is Al's Beef, which is the dog's bollocks I might add.

Nothing like this down in STL unfortunately 
They rave about a pizza place called IMO's but we tried a slice once and the cheese they use is disgusting.

Pizza is that terrible here we have to resort to Papa Johns/Pizza Hut etc.. You know, ones that use normal pizza cheese!

That being said, as long as I could get decent Mexican food I'd probably (reluctantly) make it work.

Pizza Hut isn't bad, especially if you want something quick and easy. I often wonder what I'd do if we moved too far out of the area (I could handle just over the line into WI because there are places close by) because I do love the wonderfully bad for you Chicago food.

Re: What I like about America. [A politics-free thread]
Same here. I never really gave it much thought actually, because I was never really exposed to it back home. As soon as I tried proper Mexican food here I was hooked.
