Portillo's

My wife and I had a date night to go see a movie and go out to dinner. However, my wife wasn't feeling very hungry after the popcorn and suggested we go here for our dinner. This is a local chain restaurant that serves Chicago style hot dogs and italian beef sandwiches. I really like going here for the chocolate cake milk shake! Yes, they actually blend up some of their chocolate cake into the milk shake. Add to that the delicious beef and cheddar croissant along with some cheese fries and you have one very good meal! Of course this isn't very healthy, but every once in a while it really hits the spot.
We really like the cheese fries since they serve them by just giving you a small plastic cup of hot melted cheese along with the fries served in their regular container. You therefore have the option of eating the fries plain, dipping in ketchup or dunking them in the cheese sauce.
