Agreed, if I was asking you to ship a portillos beef would be up at the top. I like lou's all around. Giordanos is too much bread, and I like Lous butter crust way better than Genos yellow stuff.
Al's beef is legit also. You ever got a milkshake at weiner circle?
That's exactly why I like Lou's better, all about the crust.
And it's not just a milkshake, it's a chocolate milkshake
And I've never bought one, but witnessed many. The SWMBO used to live about 2 blocks from there at Clark and Diversey, and that was the 3am spot before bed.
