"It’s all things Chi-town at this hot dog and burger joint in Avondale Estates. Staying in your car means you’ll miss out on the Chicago sports team memorabilia plastered on the walls inside. But you’ll still get the most important thing: a Chicago dog with the usual fixings (big slices of tomatoes, tangy sport peppers, you know the drill). The all-beef dog is thick and juicy, and one bite recalls visions of the Bean. Even if you're not hungry, keep Skips in rotation for their handspun chocolate milkshakes—creamier, smoother, and more reliable than that chain with the perpetually broken shake machine." - juli horsford, jacinta howard
