Fast Food Review - 06-30-2005, 12:55 PM

Id like to start a thread where we all give our two cents on recent fast food experinces... Concidering i never cook and dont have a personal chef i eat out almost everyday... Most times twice a day... So im a pretty seasoned critic so here we go....


The NEW Taco Bell Wrap supreme (Or whatever its called)

I enjoyed this new spin on the same old crap from taco hell. Its a Hard shell tostada with beef (im told) nacho cheese,sour cream,letucce and tomato all wrapped in a flour burrito tortilla. Whats cool is it made for the person on the go or who is too lazy to lean forward while they eat cuz the burrito shell is cooked together so it stay closed and keep the taco filling from ending up on you or your car..

I give it 9 thumbs up (thats from the simpsons) Seriously though if your in the mood for fake mexican food give it a try i think you might like it.

Heres my review of some awesome food in Chicago.
Superdawg on Milwaukee and Devon.
Awesome Hamburgers and Hotdogs.
Kinda pricey, but IMO worth every penny.
Best burger I've had hands down...........

You are both dead on with your comments. The new Taco Bell wrap is great. If you want an appetizer to go with it, their Fiesta Potatoes are pretty good too. (Small cubed potatoes, covered in Nacho Cheese, Sour Cream, and Chives.

As for the McDonalds dollar menu.... It's about time that someone made a dollar menu with enough choices, to satisfy almost anybody.

One of the BEST Italian Beef Sandwiches in the area, is Novi's Beef on Ogden and Oak Park avenue.

... and of course, we cant forget Portillo's

Nickey's gyros and dogs on Roosevelt east of Finley, in Lombard. Gyro sandwich.
Right next door, el Famous Burrito (chain) for veggie burrito.
Chinese Kitchen off Ogden and Royal St. George, in Naperville is not quite fast food, but darn good carry out.
Great burgers at Your Neighbors, in the Bobak's plaza off 75th and Rickert, Naperville. Good chili in the winter.

John78 - Giovanni's for ribs?

dave, just my 2 cents, I'd rather pull each ball hair out one at a time with tweezers than watch supersize me and I think my buddy Rocco would agree also. Again, thats just my opinion

By the way, that giovannis is not there anymore. I think they moved around riverside drive and harlem
