CHICAGO! | Pequod’s Pizza | Portillo’s | Wrigley Field | Shoreline Tour | Elephant & Castle

Last day in Chicago! Had to hit up one more deep dish pizzeria, and can’t leave Chicago without having a Chicago Dog and an Italian Beef sandwich!
Side trips include checking out Wrigley Field and taking an architectural boat river tour to view the breathtaking Chicago shoreline.
Thanks everyone for your recommendations. Couldn’t visit them all, but there’s always next time!

“It’s art look it up” still cracks me up😂👌🏼

[@chisanvegas]

Seeing you eat food, that I know what it tastes like is almost torture!! Glad you enjoyed my hometown!

[@pamelabraden5176]

My home town where I live and breathe, Chicago!! Happy you were able to do a video here. Thank you for visiting us.

[@almondfloat]

I just got up and I'm watching you eat that Pequod's Pizza and my stomach is growling. OMG I want pizza for breakfast now. Stay safe guys! Safe travels! Luv ya both! =)

[@donnak.8422]

All the food looks good! You guys are such neat & tidy eaters; I'd have half of it all over my face!

[@harveyh3696]

I can't help but smile when I watch your videos!

[@karenfromNH]

Thanks Bill and Lisa for all the great travel ideas and tips. I am hoping to visit some of these areas that I would never have considered before your videos. You two are the best, honest reviews, such sweet personalities and great tips.

[@billandlisa]

Appreciate that, Karen! Thanks so much for watching!

[@jkimmie7488]

Omg that cheese pull. Dead!!! From the floor to the plate with Lisa standing like that and his laughing. Highlight of the video. 😝🤣😂🤣😂

[@worrior06]

“You guys want a bite”? Is my favorite lisa-ism to date. Rolling laughing with this one. Thanks for the awesome videos.

[@Siora-sp2do]

The whole series looked delicious. The chocolate cake. Yum.

[@randeestapleton672]

There’s a Garrett Popcorn inside Miracle Mile in Vegas. YUM.

[@kellyoconnell2169]

I'm from Chicago and travel to Vegas twice a year. Never knew that! Thanks! Nothing like the Chicago Mix!! :)

[@flot5926]

I’m amazed that there’s no people around. That’s a good thing considering all that’s going on right now. That chocolate cake is making my mouth water. One of my weaknesses. Thank you for sharing your experiences. Love you guys!🥰

[@msavp7492]

Wow it is a beautiful city. All of the food you eat looked so delicious. I especially love a good Italian beef! Thanks for sharing!

[@ramencurry6672]

In my opinions the Italian beef is the best local food item in the city

[@jdmdc2310]

Glad you enjoyed Portillo’s hot dogs. They are very consistent and taste the same in Buena Park. Good video btw!

[@SuiGenerisAbbie]

We love seeing our favourite KZbinrs masked up. 😎 👍

[@kimmipetcos7855]

Great showing of Chicago!!! Miss that delicious pizza!!

[@jamesshaw3230]

Thank you guys I allways want to see the big field before. Man it's really big. Love you guys. Be safe out there. GOD bless.

[@markakira8988]

Hi Bill and Lisa! Awesome video and mad props for traveling when most people are living in fear. You can buy just dipped 'gravy bread' at Portillo's too; I always get the 'combo' dipped...beef with an Italian Sausage inside but it makes you feel like a blob a hot day. Lisa takes the 'points lead' with her CORRECT pizza rankings lol but Bill gains a point for wearing the "Portillo's Delivers" sticker on his shirt, I usually wear the Portillo's paper hat to embarrass my friends or coworkers (free if you ask). Hope to meet you two at Wrigley someday. Have a safe trip home.

[@billandlisa]

Thanks Mark! Was wondering if someone was going to comment on the ‘Portillo’s Delivers’ sticker, it came off the soda cup lid. lol

[@REALCRISKO]

You guy's are killing me with all this delicious looking food. Great video! Stay safe.

[@Mary-oh9qi]

Thank you for sharing your 3 amazing videos of Chicago, my home town. ❤️

[@timlouden5088]

About fell off my chair when the camera went straight to the chocolate cake, yummmmm. Donna

[@pamelabraden5176]

Portillo's chocolate cake is Killer. The greatest cake on Earth. Believe me, I do know my cakes.

[@BaoNguyen-ns1jj]

Yay, Portillo’s. The Chicago dog and beef sandwich are great, the bbq there is good too. Glad you guys liked it. Love your videos.

Wife and I enjoying videos, keep up the great content! Chicago is now on our list of destinations.

[@thomassanfrancisco5850]

The characteristic burnt crust makes the pizza so delicious. The cheese wall yum!

[@keithmasumoto9698]

Great job, guys. You can't eat everything here in 3 days. There is actually 1 Garretts open but it's on the far south side at 87th and Cottage Grove. I know because I've been going there to send to friends in PHX and NYC. Thanks for sharing!

[@joseph6948]

Bill, you look cool in the t-shirt...love the color! I love your editing. we have an Elephant & Castle in Toronto too, the food looked great.

[@bridgetdraper5146]

My entire high school walked here together. My Chicago Police officer father would pick me up and take me to games in the Bleachers where Harry Caray announced the game. I have not been back in over 20 years. God I miss Chicago!

[@brandygeorge9]

We have Portillo’s here in Orange County where I live in the city of Buena Park, right near Knott’s Berry Farm in the Buena Park Mall next to the Olive Garden.

[@billandlisa]

We know the spot! We’ll have to visit there for a comparison.

[@brandygeorge9]

Bill & Lisa's food and travel vlog That’s a great idea! I’ll wait for that video!

[@margejohnson2987]

Thank you Bill and Lisa! Regardless of what is going on in our country right now, I still think my hometown is a "Beautiful City". And just a FYI, Al's Beef is overrated, expensive and the sandwiches are small, you didn't miss a thing.

[@nutbug]

WOW I just love love love your food adventures especially your Deep Dish Adventure! Thank You and I really think your reviews are honest, fair and spot on!!! Thank You sooo much for all your great videos we really enjoy them and you two are too adorable!!!

[@billandlisa]

Thanks Nutbug! Just keeping things real. 😃

[@kendie8134]

Saturday watching Bill and Lisa😊 love you guys❤️❤️❤️

[@emoreno30]

Hey guys love the videos ! I’m also from LA but one of my favorite cities to visit is Chicago. Next time you guys are out there check out this place called Three Dots and a Dash. It’s in downtown Chicago on N. Clark st. So it’s a bit of a mission to find it as the place was a speak easy back in prohibition days ..so it’s hidden. Cool little spot to grab some drinks.

[@bentbehind]

I can't count the times as a teenager I spent at Wrigley Field on an afternoon when classes ended early. Next time I'm in Chicago I will look up this pizza place.

[@lngleg]

Another good adventure!! Thank you for posting this. Stay safe out there.

[@mattofaptos]

Another great video! I've been to the Portillo's in Buena Park. I love the Italian Beef and Cake Shake!

[@MathewLauren]

We need to explore Chicago again one day!

[@genaragland4979]

The only beef sandwich I eat. Glad you got to enjoy it. Portillos is the best

[@althingsrpossible]

You guys are making my mouth water with an Italian beef sandwich !! I am literally drooling and I am a vegetarian now!! I live in Las Vegas but miss my city Chicago. Thank you much for sharing this with us.

[@billandlisa]

Anytime, Karl!

[@edgarisaguirre7313]

Thanks for sharing the sites of the windy city. Take care guys.

[@yvonneacosta2539]

Loved the pizza shootout but Portillos made my mouth water! Want to eat an Italian roast beef sandwich! Thank you Bill and Lisa for another great video.

[@billandlisa]

Wish we could’ve tried Al’s Beef and their version of the Italian beef sandwich. Would’ve been an epic shootout!

[@creothetraveler4945]

@@billandlisa yeah you gotta check out Al's Beef and buona.com/

[@Monique_C.]

Three Great video's. Amazing photography of the city.

[@meanny28]

Next time add mozzarella cheese to your Italian beef and get the chocolate cake SHAKE!! Definitely come back when everything is “back to normal”. The lakefront is a beautiful walk

We have a Portillos in Fort Wayne Indiana. It’s very good!! I’m glad we finally got one it’s been open 6 months or so.

[@ramseygilbert5451]

Its art look it up We realy enjoy your eye for art in many of your vids and the pin ball saying between B and L First ever deep dish shoot out ever seen Thanks for bringing a taste of Chicago and love to everyone

[@billandlisa]

Thanks Ramsey!

[@normatorres6978]

Yay for Bill! Lou Malnati's is my favorite deep dish too. Wish I would have run into you both. I worked all day and was at Barnes and Noble across the street from Pequod's and later was across the street at Walgreens!! Seeing you would have made my day. Hope you come back once the city fully opens up to dine in our restaurants. I have recommendations for you. 🤗

[@billandlisa]

Next time!

[@tiffprendergast]

UNOs all the way

[@maureencora1]

I Love Portillo's.

You sure do!

[@onejazzimom]

You guys hit great spots! Safe travels!

[@TurnItUpWorld]

Lisa that was a priceless cheese pull! 😂😂🍕 Really thick crust! Quiet streets but enjoyed the sights and that chocolate cake looked good! Loved how you fed your man girl! Now did the city feel empty?

[@billandlisa]

Only fed me because I'm holding the phone/camera. lol Yes, the city as a whole did feel empty. Not every store/restaurant/hotel was open. Apparently, the city just opened up last week, thus the low crowds.

[@pamelabraden5176]

I love Portillo's!! Love the Italian beef with a lot of peppers and onions and those delicious fries. They have the greatest Chocolate Cake on Earth!!

[@juanitaldiggs]

Looks yummy.

[@winniepoohbear8916]

Yeah baby! Last day in Chicago was a productive one! Pizza, hot dog, steak sammich, burger and a Guinness!! Yum and fewww! 😉

As much as I like eating. Eating a lot, and I do enjoy your vids. Cultural, scenic, touristy throw-in gives your channel more spice! Crazy delicious looking pizza pie by the way.

[@erdbeermund78]

I used to live in Chicago for many years and my favorite place for deep dish was actually this Italian restaurant in Andersonville called Calo. For me, #2 was Bacino’s….

[@billandlisa]

There’s your reason to go back to Chicago, Shelley! lol

[@rickjansson4391]

A buddy of mine out here in Scottsdale still swears by Pequod’s over the others. Maybe they’ll open out here, too, one of these days.

[@ramencurry6672]

Pequods is probably the best pizza in Chicago. I recommend it

[@lisaanderson8235]

I have been super enjoying your Chicago series! Thanks for taking us along! 👍👍 My favorite hot dog preparation is the Chicago dog. Mmm

[@rogercollins3]

You went to Pequod's!!! Glad you took our suggestions, and I'm glad you liked it! Don't forget, that little gem only set you back 6.99! If you are ever in Columbus, OH hit me up, we have some great places here!

Portillo’s store front and interior is adorable!!

I hope I get a chance to be happy like you guys when I'm older. It must be fun feeling very free to travel nd eat. Gd video

[@lisawalkerblodgett3055]

The elevated train track is so cool!

[@NJFB2188]

Lived here my whole life. Still haven’t had Pequods but I want to try it. Glad you made it to Portillo’s. They’ve continued to become more popular since my childhood. Portillo’s has one of my favorite beefs. I get it fully dipped with mozzarella, no peppers. You definitely need it dipped in the natural juice. A recommendation: try Ricobene’s breaded steak sandwich in Bridgeport neighborhood by White Sox park in your next visit here. Ricobene invented the breaded steak sandwich and other places have copied it. It’s a sandwich you can only get here in Chicago really. One of the magazines like Newsweek or something named it best sandwich in the world a few years back lol. Another recommendation: if you get back to Chicago try some thin crust pizza spots. Most of us don’t eat deep dish that often. Our thin crust is just as good if not better at a lot of places. Also, our Mexican food is awesome too and you can find tons of suggestions of where to go online.

[@billandlisa]

Thanks for the recommendation! Bookmarked it. The breaded steak sandwich sounds interesting!

[@knowyourhistory]

now you need to compare the Portillos in Los Angeles!

[@heygladysmejia]

All looked so yummy!

Just another fabulous video, Bill and Lisa, thank you for sharing, Chicago is known as "The Windy City", but noticed not that windy there, not like when you were in Las Vegas recently, you went at the right time👍

[@billandlisa]

Locals have mentioned to us that we visited during the perfect weather week. lol

[@tiffprendergast]

That’s not why they call it that
