20 Classic Restaurants In Chicago
"Back before Chicago had Filipino hot spots like Kasama and Boonie’s, there was Uncle Mike’s in West Town. It’s an appropriate name for this longstanding diner, considering eating Filipino breakfast in their floral-tiled dining room feels like you're hanging out in a relative's home. Fatty longanisa, tocino, and crispy fried milkfish all come with gingery lugaw, garlic rice, eggs, and dipping vinegar. And by the time you’ve finished your last spoonful of the complimentary champorado, you’ll wish every breakfast ended with chocolate rice porridge." - nick allen, john ringor, adrian kane
