This would be the last place I'd be if on vacation. YMMV.

I can recommend MANY restaurants in all of those towns if'n you want some good places to eat. LMK.

Are you going to Wrigley or GR or both? Stay safe down around GR and keep your head on a swivel. Use Uber if possible.

When you're in Chicago, go to Mr. Beef on North Harlem and get yourself an Italian Beef sammich. Soaking wet with both sweet peppers and hot giardiniera.

You'll find yourself hankering for another one once you get back on this coast.

Have a blast!

Staying on the river in Chicago, it’s called the river hotel. Just wrigley and we aren’t staying the night in Detroit.

yes! Yes!! YES!!!!

Or Al's Big Beef, Bouna Beef or Portillos. Don't care - pick one. Get in my mouth now.

A food truck that made real Chicago Beefs would make a killing downtown. One of you get on this now and call Dan and I when it opens ok.

When Toff was in Chicago, I told him to swing by Mr. Beef and I'd pick him up at Sea-Tac and take him up to him place.

Even a 4+ hour old Mr. Beef Italian Beef sammich is worth fighting someone over.

If you live here and have to have one - go to Lou Malnati's online store - loutogo.com - and order their Portillo beef sammich kit. 8 samiches, about 80 bones delivered as I recall, and worth every fuckin cent.

I have not only done this twice on Dan's recommendation, but he met me at Seatac on a return flight to eat a four hour old sammich that I carried on the plane with me.

They are pretty good wink

Fish on...

Edit: Didn't notice that Dan had already told the story!

I'm just surprised that TSA or the flight crew didn't attack you and confiscate the sammies. I know I would. What good is having a little bit of power, when you don't use it for the right things? "Don't taze me bro! It's just a sandwich"!

Mr. Beef sounds like a place Hank would frequent.

We smuggled some Creole food from New Orleans once,I'm surprised the dude let us get on the plane but he was cool. Wrigley is on my bucket list. Badass. Being a die hard Giants fan I get it. I'm going to see us play the Rockies in Denver and I'm gonna wear my world series Buster Posey jersey and all my SF [Bleeeeep!] and watch those poor scrubs hate on me for being ,well,a fan of a team that people actually care about.

You're going to love Denver and Coors Field. The stadium layout is fantastic. I personally like sitting in left field, but there isn't a bad seat in the park. Get some Rocky Mountain Oysters if you aren't a scared little she-bitch. Delish!

If you like tasty dead animals on a plate, you MUST eat at the Buckhorn Exchange in downtown. Oldest steakhouse in Colorado (1893) and they serve all kinds of critters. It's not cheap, but its entirely worth it. Link: http://buckhorn.com/

And if your a fan of South Park, you also gotta visit Casa Bonita to watch the dive show, which is a total trip and mind fvck. Just DO NOT eat there. The food makes Taco Bell look like a 5 star Michelin restaurant.
