Portillo’s coming to Disney springs?

[DisneyFreak]

I hope it's a Portillo's/Barnellli's combo place. Beef one day, Ribs or Pasta the next day...I may have to make a run tonight to pick some up now.

Portillo's and Lou Malnati's combo place! Forget the parks, I'm just hanging in Disney Springs for a week!

I think we may need a 5th gate/Chicago themed park. It's mostly going to be restaurants and everyone is required to rent a scooter.

Idea for Land themes....

The Loop USA
Pizzaland
Hot Dog Land (no ketchup allowed!)
Italian Beef & Sausage Land
Ballpark/Stadium Food Land
Streak/BBQ Land

Kudos to you for saying you're a Chicago SUBURBS guy.
I live in Chicago.
So many of my family and friends say "we're from Chicago" yet they live in Bartlett, Palatine, or Mt. Prospect.

It's like this for all of us within the Chicagoland area..And I'm from Des Plaines..

Sorry for not being precise enough by saying Chicagoland. I honestly don’t understand why specifying City v Burbs is a big deal on an anonymous forum.

Because any true Chicagoan would never admit to liking deep dish pizza.
Deep dish pizza is for tourists.

Born & raised here for over 40 years. I love deep dish pizza and I’m hardly a tourist.

Played Little League at Devon/Higgins (Seminole Park).

I haven't had Barnaby's in years. Is it still on Touhy and Wolf Roads?

Born and raised in Chicago. Deep Dish is not just for tourists.

I had heard the Adreani's had sold. I worked in the kitchen there for three years during high school. I'm guessing Mr & Mrs A are gone and it was Buddy and Jen running things. That's too bad, the pizza was awesome.

Yeah, a new family took it over, remodled the enterior and changed up the menu..It's not the same anymore I'm afraid...

Ignore him. I bet he puts ketchup on his hotdogs

Hey, what about me? I'm on the border of Des Plaines in Glenview now! Also lived in Palatine, and almost everywhere else except Chicago itself.

It reminds me of this from Conan O'brien...
