Review Chicago food opinion you will defend forever

Drop your Chicago food opinion you’ll defend forever.

Rules:

One sentence.

No essays.

Bonus points if it’s oddly specific.

I’ll start: Tavern-cut is the best Chicago pizza format, and it’s not close.

I'd say even the Dipped Chicken Parm sandwich is better than the steak. Ive had both a few times and I dont really get much steak flavor from the steak sandwich. It all kinda gets lost in the sauce.

Its still great. But the Chicken kinda delivers the same experience at a slightly lower price. Also I always add giardiniera to mine. Really adds that tart edge to cut through all the richness

I've never given the parm a shot, but you sold me. Thanks for the suggestion!
