Chicago Food Diary with Parents 🍽️👨‍👩‍👧

🍔 Au Cheval The burger that everyone raves about — we ordered a single cheeseburger, one with egg & bacon, and foie gras scrambled eggs. The single cheeseburger was just okay — pretty standard, and the bun was a bit dry 😕. Adding egg and bacon made it much tastier and more interesting — worth a try! The foie gras scrambled eggs were delicious — rich, fatty, and aromatic — though I got a little tired of it halfway through 🥘✨. 🥩 Steak 48 My dad really wanted steak, so we ended our U.S. trip with a steak dinner here. The ambiance was lovely, and the service was excellent — our server even said my dad’s voice sounded like a movie star’s 😄🎬 Food-wise, it wasn’t mind-blowing. The 16oz NY Strip (medium) was a bit dry and underseasoned. But the Ahi Tuna was a hit — tender inside with a lightly spicy, scallion-infused crust 🐟🌶️. The oysters were fresh but tiny according to my parents 🦪. Dessert: Chocolate Bombe — sweet but not overly rich. Even though the food wasn’t amazing, we had a great time — maybe thanks to finishing a whole bottle of wine 🍷❤️. 🍕 Giordano’s Deep-dish pizza is so heavy — definitely order the smallest size! 🥵 The Italian beef sandwich was pretty good though! ☕ Largest Starbucks (Reserve Roastery) Tastes exactly the same as any regular Starbucks — but fun to see the space! #ChicagoEats #FoodWithFamily #BurgerLover #Steakhouse #DeepDishPizza #ChicagoFoodie
