Chicago’s Famous Cake Shake Is A Portillo’s Staple | Legendary Eats | Food Insider

Portillo’s is a fast-casual restaurant chain considered a one-stop-shop for iconic Chicago foods. Founded in 1963 in the Southwest suburbs of Chicago, Portillo’s is known across the country for its hot dogs, Italian beef sandwiches, cheese fries, and chopped salads. But its best-kept secret is the restaurant’s cake shake. Insider's Medha Imam visited Portillo’s Summit, IL location to learn what goes into making the iconic cake shake. Rumor has it they put an entire slice of chocolate cake into their milkshake, making it a must-try dessert.

Garrett's Makes Chicago's Most Iconic Popcorn | Legendary Eats

Popcorn is Illinois' official snack food, and Garrett Popcorn has been serving some of the best handcrafted popcorn in the state since 1949. The secret family recipe that's been handed down over three generations is still made in old-fashioned copper kettles with kernels that are grown just for the company. Garrett's handcrafts its popcorn in small batches throughout the day and can make anywhere from 30 to 150 batches daily. The famous Garrett mix consists of a mix of its CheeseCorn and CaramelCrisp flavors, creating a perfect blend of savory and sweet. There's almost always a line at all Garrett Popcorn shops, so Insider's Medha Imam visited one to see how the iconic mix is made and why it's one of Oprah's Favorite Things.

Editor's Note: Insider visited Garrett Popcorn in March 2020, before Chicago restaurants closed to dine-in service. You can still order popcorn and more for pickup and delivery. For more information, visit:

Johnnie's Iconic Italian Beef Is A Delicious Mess Of Beef And Gravy | Legendary Eats | Insider Food

With how ubiquitous Italian beef sandwiches are in Chicago, it's hard to pick just one. But the line outside Johnnie's Beef and its #1 rankings on several best lists are a good indication that this spot is one of the Windy City's favorites.

According to Eater, Johnnie's Italian beef sandwich is considered by many to be the shining standard that others strive to achieve. Other publications, customers, and critics agree for several reasons. The meat is well-seasoned with an array of secret spices. It's sliced thin and accompanied by either sweet peppers or giardiniera loaded with crunchy carrots, celery, and chiles. Customers who order it dipped get a generous helping of gravy that's sure to be absorbed by the plush French bread holding all that beefy goodness together.

The Best Cinnamon Rolls In Chicago | Legendary Eats

In the late 1980s, cinnamon roll shops began opening up across the country. Bakery giants like Cinnabon and T.J. Cinnamons gained national attention, and in Chicago alone, there were already a dozen specialty cinnamon roll shops. With the rise of America's appetite for cinnamon rolls, how did a small mom-and-pop called Ann Sather withstand the intense competition and test of time? We visited the original restaurant in Chicago’s Lakeview neighborhood to get a closer look at how the iconic cinnamon rolls are made and learn why they are so loved by the local community.

Editor's Note: Insider visited Ann Sather's in March 2020, before Chicago restaurants closed to dine-in service. The restaurant has reopened for limited dine-in and outdoor service, and you can still order cinnamon rolls and more for pickup and delivery. For more information, visit:
