...tables to the window blinds. The wait staff is all business (as is most of the clientele). The food, accelerating in flavor and intensity through a meal, seems conjured in Adrià's lab: breaded fois custard cream with apricot jam, baked skate with clam aioli, smoked beef with "ancient mustard" foam.

Served with celery salt in a poppy-seed bun, this great Chicago tradition typically sells for less than $5. For many Chicagoans, the quintessential place to munch on a hot dog is the historic Wrigley Field baseball stadium while watching a Chicago Cubs game (cubs.com...
...With its myriad attractions, shops and amusements, Navy Pier is a hugely popular Lakeshore tourist draw?and after a long day there, many visitors make a beeline for America's Dog. Magnanimously, this hot-dog stand also offers New York-style dogs with speckled brown mustard and sauerkraut toppings. But you haven't come to Chicago to order one of those now, have...
