>yup. I walked over to Uncle Lou's Deli on Franklin and W. Monroe for lunch and had the Italian beef on wheat and I also had Chicago style hotdog and they were *&#@ good. Unfortuately golfing was'nt what I wanted because of high winds and thunderstorms but it was a blast.

Terrific! I've never been able to figure out why the I.B. is found just about only in the Chicago area. It's one of the things I dearly miss about my hometown. To any lurkers, if you're ever in Chicago, the Italian Beef Sandwich (esecially on Gonella Bread) should be a "don't miss" (along with a trip to Uno's for pizza, and just about any decent restaurant for some beef).
