I definitely agree with the comments above. Chicago deep dish pizza is a must! Chicago hot dogs are good to get as well, but I've been told not as important as say, getting one in NY on Coney Island.
Eat a couple of Chicago Style Hot Dogs for lunch, and definitely get a Chicago Style Deep Dish pizza for dinner, Lou Malnati's is among the best around! Get the butter crust... and every Chicago Style Pizza has to have Sausage on it.
We go to Lou Malnatis every time we are in Chicago. Once every couple of years. Their original with pepperoni added is our go to. Their salads are also yummy to start as it takes about 35 minutes for a deep dish to cook up and serve!
I agree .. Chicago style pizza is pretty good. If you can get to the ethnic neighborhoods though, the food in those places is good too. Like Chinese food in Chinatown, Greek food in Greek town, etc.
I ate here for the first time a couple weeks ago. I went with the "classic." It did not disappoint. 🙂
