  This isn't a question. You made a statement/command, and then put a question mark at the end.

  DMK good better than average belly?! That's the best burger I've ever had. Place is so good.
  
  Ann Sathers is great. So much food. So much cinnamon rolls.
  
  I've been to Big Star once, it was so crowded we ended up just getting a drink then going to another place to eat. I've heard their fish taco's are the tits (I love you man quote).
  
  Never been to Blue Bird. I'll be at Wrigley tomorrow night for the Reds game.

  Gotta get Giordano's when visiting Chicago.

  Best places I've been to are Chicago Pizza and Oven Grinder Co, Danny's Egg Head Diner, and the Dark Horse Tap & Grill.

  DMK Burger was like I said better than average but the Mac and Cheese prefect
  I think I would have to try a few more Burger and get one I like btter than the one I had..
  
  Ann Sathers cinnamon rolls are to die for I agree everything else was just breakfast eggs over easy
  
  Big Star was just a bucket list and if I go back OK if no been there done that
  
  Blue Bird and Hot Chocolate are beside each other ... both are great plases to have lunch or dinner
  
  
  next time I'm in Chicago we get a OC group together ...

  I've eaten there twice .. at the location in Lakeview on Belmont ... that is good

  IMO, Spiaggia is the clear best (at least the best I have had in Chicago), followed by Blackbird. For a louder, testosterone-fueld vibe, Gibsons and Hugos are solid choices. Pizza-wise, I back Lou Malnati's. Finally, for breakfast, go to Yolk .. you'll thank me later.

  I prefer Geno's East for Chicago style pizza.
  
  Favorite breakfast place is the Original Pancake House.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Best Chicago pizza is Pequods. Not a debate in my mind.

  I forgot about Rosebud. Great place.

  Belly,
  
  Now that we know the NSA knows all about you and has probably read all your posts, was it the best idea to go to the stomping grounds of the dear leader and the Chicago machine like that? You are probably a marked man.

  Best Chicago Pizza? Anything NY Style...
  
  Best Steakhouse? I would call it a tie between 3 I have had. Gibsons, Capitol Grille and Del Frisco's
  
  Best Lunch? Honestly, I would just find a small place to do lunch. But I like Dunlays and 25 Degrees
  
  Best Breakfast? Yolk or Toast. Both are fantastic.
  
  Best Hot Dogs? U.B. Dogs, Portillos, Hot Dougs and of course, The Wieners Circle

  Best lunch .. "Eleven" the cornbeef sandwich is as good as Slyman in Cleveland

  Hot Doug's. been twice. Didn't wanna wait 3 hours for a hot dog. Never actually ate there. Heard the duck fried fries are the shit.
