Props to another Savannian, I lived off B&D Burgers for at least 2 years during school tearing up all the burger selections. Here’s a few of my fav’s from Savannah:
I used to live in Chicago as well, right off Belmont and Broadway. I used to grub consistently at a Gyro joint right underneath the Red Line Belmont stop!
fat gyro, fries and drink 5$. Back in 2001. Or the crazy ass hot dog stand down Broadway close to the Chicago hostel.
Bar Louie has a Tilapia taco with black beans I eat often. Scott Wilson there a couple times ;o http://www.barlouieamerica.com
West End on Madison and they were out of fish and that forced me to try their shrimp toco. Simply amazing! http://www.westendwestloop.com/ They don’t have internet access tho.
De Cero has a five dollar taco that uses a slab of Pink Salmon that is out of this world! http://www.decerotaqueria.com/
Then there is this new place in Wicker park owned by the Flash taco dude. Cafe Con Leche and their mango salsa is the dope! http://www.cafeconlechebucktown.com/
Moto Restaurant ‘I designed a wide verity of eating contraption for Moto and the Chef Cantu’ That is one unforgettable experience! http://www.motorestaurant.com
Zunzi’s is pretty dope, they are slightly bordering expensive. I don’t know about the food being the end all but, that damn sweet tea is the best thing since sliced bread! The line waiting for the food is ridiculous, so it says something about the popularity.
I lived off of Vinnie in college. One more to add to the list is iff you want to spend a bit more (and I mean just a bit) you have to include Tubby’s Tank House. It’s the best fried shrimp in town.
…and San Diego’s food specialty is carne asada fries (fries topped with a good helping of carne asada, guacamole, sour cream, and cheese). At no more than $6 a plate (and may I add, a huge plate) at a variety of taco shops (mostly in the south San Diego area), it’s definitely worth it. You might even have to share. However, if you’ve got leftovers, they’re great for saving and eating some other time. For me, it’s nice knowing that I’ve got some carne asada fries to eat when I feel like snacking on something good.
