Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Last year, I visited Chicago and after eating around for three days, decided to compare some of the foods I ate with similar foods I have found in LA. One of the things I ate in Chicago was an Italian beef sandwich from Mr. Beef, which I compared in a WWF (world Wide Food) Smackdown to a French dip from Philippe the Original in LA.
Chicago's Italian beef won, and now, thanks to the Chicago Tribune I can try making it at home. Yesterday's Food section re-printed a copy of an Italian beef recipe from the book Two for the Road by Jane and Michael Stern. The article is worth a peek, since it also reprints recipes from a few other memoir-type food books.

The other place not to miss is Billy Goat's, of course.

I have a hell of a time trying to find any here in Atlanta, though it is at pretty much every supermarket in and around Chicago. Sort of like Vienna hot dogs, though maybe that might change now that Target is starting to serve them at their in-store cafeterias.

Of course, you can always roll your own:
