Pizza
Pequod's
Deep dish with a caramelized crust. Worth the wait if Saturday still has air.

Art of Pizza
Stuffed, not a personality. If the table is hungry after the river.

Bartoli's
Thin-crust tavern pie. Neighborhood, not a pilgrimage.

Giordano's
Stuffed, tourist-proof. Only if someone in the party insists.

Italian beef, dipped. Stand up. Do not turn it into a sit-down.

Mr. Beef
The other beef. Same rules — sandwich, then walk.

Hot dogs
Clark Street Dog
Char dog, sport peppers. Late, standing.

The Wieners Circle
Chaos with a char dog. Only if the night still has teeth.

Devil Dawgs
Another dog if Clark Street is a hike.

Honorable
Billy Goat Tavern
Cheezborger. Down the stairs. Not dinner.

Margie's Candies
Hot fudge, booths, no agenda. If the evening fails beautifully.

Note
Chicken Vesuvio
The dish, not a reservation. Order it if a room has it. Do not hunt a Vesuvio restaurant.
Dish note — no place

Hot-dog serendipity
If a stand appears, get the dog. Do not itinerary it.

Friend pitches
Do the architecture cruise if the weather holds. It's the one tourist thing that isn't a tourist thing.
