Good Food

As a native Californian who now lives in the Chicago area, I was surprised to discover that Chicago has a significant regional cuisine that is not often found or even known of outside the Midwest. Everyone has heard of Chicago-style pizza, just as they've heard of a Philly Cheesesteak or a New York hot dog. But Chicago has much more to offer than just pizza.

This is the introduction to a series of posts on Chicago regional specialties that I will make on occasion. It will also give me a good excuse to revisit some of my favorites.
