A lot of people are leaving the city for places like Arizona and Texas which is crazy because their summers are extremely miserable that I rather tolerate Chicago winters! The summers in Chicago are the best! I’m still cherishing the time when the 90s Bulls were the Rockstars of the World!
i love these local joints. great you guys are supporting your local businesses during this pandemic, it's really hard on them right now. they are still giving out decent deals like at G&J's
I love how you guys really go venturing all about the city to present us your videos. A lot of northsiders would be uncomfortable to drive to the southside so thank you for showing us there is a gem of a bbq place there. Chicago has such an awesome food scene!
Thank you for your kind words. We have been pushing ourselves to go beyond our zip code, which can be hard with work and the daily routine. But it really pays off when we do. We always find great food and interesting areas around the city. For example, right in front of Lem’s there’s Brown Sugar Bakery and it’s amazing. We just happened to stumble upon it when we were there. 😊
Chicago is hands down the best big city in America! Every time I repeat every time I want to go to New York City, I wind up going to Chicago. I’m just loyal to the Windy City. My skyscraper I frequently visit is the John Hancock Tower. Best views in the city! Food wise, you can’t go wrong with any of the many restaurants supported and owned by locals!
@@KimchiAndBeansVideos I’m going this weekend yes I know the weather is awful, but a Free Day Pass to the Shedd Aquarium, I’ll even go if it’s a Blizzard outside because it will be inside!
Never had a Jibarito but have had something similar at Venezuelan places called a patacon. Love all the garlic on top and how stuffed it is! Looks delicious
Chicken is one of our fave proteins so we would be loving those lemon pepper wings and fries. Sounds like they have a great crunch to them, which is always important. Can't believe that Pizza spot Pompeii was in business that long too. The Square Pizza looked cool and never had a Pizza Strudel before, but they looked amazing. Butters would be eating that cannoli up!! You guys always eat so well and love the food you get! Great video and love you guys to the mother effin' moon!! :) 😊💖🤗😘🌛
We have never tried jibarito sandwich before, but we would love to make this one day, as we cannot get enough plantains when we find them. The one with seafood inside looked AMAZING!!! We will take 2 of those right now!! We haven't seen them sold around here where we live. Just a million Thai and Mexican restaurants LOLOL
Look at how they make those french fries! I would have asked for no peppers too. Lem's is a place Brad and Noah would absolutely love. Good tip to know you have to yell out your order (that's something I would definitely struggle with!)😄 Oh my gosh your sandwiches from Jibarito's look so good. A paradise of pizza!🍕I've never tried a pizza strudel. All of these places looked amazing, thanks for sharing guys! Have a wonderful week and a blessed Thanksgiving🦃
I remember Pompeii bakery when they were on Laflin st. We'd get a slice on our lunchtime from school... Our Lady of Pompeii...50 years ago. it was a small tiny place with wall brick ovens It was good then....
Always great to virtually exploring Chicago from your videos guys! the line is a great sign already, hot dogs, and man looks at the BBQ! the ribs and sausages, looks super legit!
Oh yes I remember that Harold’s chicken from your previous video. Looks very tempting, crunchy and ridiculously delicious 🤤 Thanks for sharing these spots with us. Hope we can visit Chicago one day and try all these delicious food 👍🏻
Hi Nabol and Maria, I really enjoyed your video! I hope you both go viral and get 100,000 subscribers because you definitely deserve it! Keep making amazing videos! I would love to see the best food places in Aurora and North Aurora which is where I live!
I would have probably just stood there not knowing what to say at the BBQ place when I tried to order! 😄The plantain bread sandwiches looked yummy. And I remember Harold's Chicken, still looks good! Everything looks so good but The food at Pompei is calling my name!
Next time I come It would be awesome to hangout and yall show us all the great spots to eat. Yall seem like good people and would be awesome to hangout with
Hi, guys! Wow! You guys always have the most amazing food. It looks fantastic and so delicious. You have so many wonderful places to go too. You would never need to cook and you would never have to repeat anything. Fantastic share dear friends. Happy Wednesday. Many blessings to you. Have a beautiful day.🥰❤️🎅🏻🎅🏻🎄🎄
Those ribs on the grill look so delicious! Haha first time ordering with people queueing behind, staring at you coz you don't know what you want is the worst feeling haha!! Jibarito's dish look amazing!! What a wholesome meal!
OMGOSH, Fried plantains as bread??? This is an off the hook crazy delicious episode. You two are always our Foodies Joy:) Love the Pompeii pizza Best Wishes, James and Kim
Hey Maria and Nabol! This was a cool video on classic eats in ChiTown! That hotdog looked so good, and love that they put 2 wieners in it!! Great that they have hand cut fries and that tube tamale was interesting. That's wild that Lem's BBQ has been there for 66 years.. that's a long time, and you know it must be good. The ribs and sausage looked amazing and we love BBQ food!!
Anytime I travel it's always the local spots that blow my mind. Problem is I usually don't know anyone to take me to the spots. Everywhere I look online it always ends up being the "usual tourist spots" that are recommended. Love what y'all doing. time to binge your content a bit
Loved that french fry cutter at Gene and Jude's! The fries look classic! Lem's reminds me of the soup nazi place. I wonder where Pompei pizza gets their tomatoes. They looked so great. And the cannolli - waah!!!
Lens BBQ joint is in my old neighborhood. Love the rib tips and hot links. Wash down with a sweet potato pie! Harold’s Chicken is in my other old neighborhood on 103rd and Halsted. Get a large order of chicken gizzards! Mmmm goood!
I just found your channel. I will be visiting Chicago in September. I am looking forward to the places you have shown. I watched episode 2 before 1. Thank you for all the tasty information.
They finally got a Harold’s in Schaumburg. We love it and even baby Rosalie loves it. My favorite part is that it comes with a random white bread. We go a couple times a month.
@@MikkiShihTzu That’s what we do. Harold’s great chicken but never great service from my experience. Funny part is that Still wait 20 min after I get there. Still worth it to me.
@@SantosChronicles thered a new spot in Schaumburg called B's Shrimp & Fish supposedly the food is identical or even better and no wait time...haven't tried it yet tho..check it out on yelp
I’ve been to 2 out of the 5 places G & J and Pompei. They all look amazing! Those Jibaritos don’t look disappointing. Amazing share guys as always I leave your channel hungry 😋
I need to take this tour. I have never gone to Gene and Jude’s before. Double hotdog has to be life changing. And that rib place looks so good. In your old home town, TX was more intimidating because they Ask you how many pounds.
O man been eating my plain bowl of fruit while watching this. Felt like the strawberries were turning into ribs, fried chicken and hand cut fries hahahahaha. What an amazing day of eating. Great Chicago food episode guys. Sauce is the way to go fo sure! That pizza place looks legendary.
Sadly I have not tried any of these places! :( Can't believe I lived in Chicago for 6 years and didn't try any of them, now I feel the need to go back! I want to try Jibarito's and Harold's :)
Hi again! Wow, those are some great Chicago eats. I have heard of Gene and Jude's. I love ketchup, so I might have to bring my own...I hope I don't get in trouble, haha. I would definitely have to check the menu before getting the BBQ. The Jibarito's sandwich looks amazing! Garlic butter makes everything better. I need to try Harold's chicken one day, as well as the tomato pizza that Nabol likes. Thanks for sharing!
