"Bear with us for a second here. While the jibarito at La Bomba in Humboldt Park isn’t exactly what you might typically consider a steak, it’s kind of like a full steakhouse dinner in sandwich form. It consists of charred, tender beef between two fried plantains (standing in for side dishes), plus tomato, lettuce, and cheese (there’s your salad), and a delicious garlic mayo that ties everything together. It will make your breath bad for days, but it’s completely worth it, and you don’t have to make a reservation, sign a lease for a huge booth, or stare down a traveling tray of raw steak to eat it." - adrian kane
