Wow! that first one looks good. What exactly is in it?
I think I'll stay away from the Chicago dog... way too many veggies for my liking!
The Italian Beef.... MMMMmmmmmm...
It's pretty much just thin sliced beef, slow roasted and then simmered in an au jus... different places season them a little differently, but they're all good!
On top, pretty much anything goes... giardinaria, peppers, onions, mozzerella, etc..
We'll have to get you one while you're here for the convention!

Maybe on the Polish side of town...

Everywhere else is Italian Beef and Italian Sausage... Or let's make it a combo!!
Louisiana - red beans and rice. Yum yum.
Oh, another of my favorites would be from Ecuador.
Empanadas de carne - meat, rice and veggie turnover
Ceviche de camaron - sort of like a soup with fish and shrimp
Fritada - fried pork
And Cuyes - Don't ask unless you have a REALLY strong stomach
