@Chicagonista @Chicagonista best beef = Buona. Johnnie’s is great, Al’s is great, even Pete’s in Oak Park. But Buona kills it. #CHIpicks

Although I always called it J’s Hot Dogs, the actual name is J’s Corner on Elston. Still a great place to check out. Thanks again for including me in your #CHIpicks
I drove by Punky’s when I went down to 26th street for my cousins funeral and saw that place. looks like I’ll have to take a road trip for a Beef sandwich.
I liked mine Dipped!!
ps. Local for me is a place called Fasano’s in Bridgeview, IL on 83rd Roberts rd So big you’d have to share it.
I’ve recently started a website, and the info you provide on this website has helped me tremendously. Thanx for all of your time & work.
