Patty Please - Review - Avondale - Chicago - The Infatuation

"Despite operating out of Small Bar’s equally tiny kitchen, Patty Please is a massive burger-smashing force. This Avondale pop-up presses beef into pristine doily-eque circles with a fantastic griddled crisp. But the patties’ center remains moist, fusing perfectly with the American cheese and buttery soft potato roll. The classic cheeseburger is great, but our go-to order at the bar or in a booth with friends at 12:36am is the Pleaser. It gets a tangy kick from their signature sauce and sweetness from grilled onions. Plus, at $8 a burger ($12 for a double), you can get garlicky cheese curds and a sweet, citrusy frozen banana daiquiri without first checking your bank account." - John Ringor
